All Gold Everything


Call Neil Young and tell him to stop searching, because we've got a gold thing that's WAY cooler than a heart: this 2007 Gibson Custom Shop 50th Anniversary Les Paul Standard. For the '57 Standard's big 5-0, Gibson decided to honor it in style by creating a limited run of 157 of these Midas-kissed beauties. It's all gold from the top to the back to the headstock to the hardware, and it looks elegant, regal, and refined enough to fit right in at the Palace of Versailles. The headstock is even gold-plated--how awesome is that?

It also sounds glorious thanks to its Burstbucker pickups, which deliver vintage Gibson tone with a dash of modern heat and clarity. The neck also delivers a fifties feel that makes for a positively addictive playing experience.

All in all, this powerful Paul is a goldmine of mojo and tone, and we have no doubt some lucky Gibson fanatic will enjoy its riches for a long, long time.

Sonic Evaluation


This highly-limited Lester also meets the gold standard for tone! Overall, it's a rich-sounding Les Paul with an attack that sits about in the middle of the scale between springy and twangy--right in the Goldilocks zone. It's also quite articulate, with a beautifully-shaped EQ curve and resonance in all the right places. The lows are muscular without being muddy, the mids pack a focused punch, and the trebles have a wonderful singing quality. The bridge pickup is a snarling delight, and the neck pickup is warm and inviting. We invite you to take this '57 LP for a spin and experience the true ecstasy of gold!

Condition Report


This gorgeous goldtop is in fantastic shape! It shows light signs of normal use (basically just some incredibly light scratches and some slight hardware tarnish. Other than that, there are no cosmetic flaws to report. And, it comes with its original hardshell case and hangtags as well as a certificate of authenticity.
