Solidbody Electric Guitar with Mahogany Body, Maple Top, Mahogany Neck, Indian Rosewood Fingerboard, and 2 Single-coil Pickups - Double Gold

If you bought a Les Paul back in ’56, you would have gotten your hands of the rare combination of P-90 pickups and an adjustable ABR-1 bridge. Now, you can obtain that same coveted combo with the Gibson Custom 1956 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue. Enjoy the fat snarl of the P-90s, along with the intonation and sustain of the ABR-1. And, of course, you get the chunky neck that was standard issue back in ’56. The 1956 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue is a unique beast. If you're a Les Paul aficionado, you’ll want to get your hands of this one.

Fat, satisfying '56 profile neck

The 1956 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue's Chunky “C” profile neck is the Holy Grail for many Les Paul players who prefer thick necks. If you're in this camp, those '60s SlimTaper necks aren't for you — wrapping your fretting hand around a juicy tree trunk of a neck is the real deal. The 1956 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue is your kind of axe.

P-90 pickups deliver the original sound of the Les Paul

When the Les Paul first came out, the P-90 was the only pickup option. And when PAF humbuckers came out, P-90s were all but reduced to "budget pickups." Well, it only took about a decade or three for many guitar players to come back around to the good old P-90. Why? Because they sound amazing! Warm and creamy, shiny and full of life, the Custom Soapbar P-90s in this 1956 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue capture the very essence of the classic pre-PAF Dog Ear P-90. Roll back the tone and keep the volume in check, and you've got access to the liquid jazz lines Les Paul himself liked to play, or open them up and tap into a slightly rude and gritty tone. Simple as they are, these classic pickups give the 1956 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue the wide range of classic tones you crave.

Vintage Original Sheen finish, for the look and feel of a classic

Gibson Custom's Vintage Original Sheen finish option comes standard on Custom Shop Historic Reissue models. The VOS finish package includes lightly aged parts that imparts an authentic vintage patina. The nitrocellulose finished it buffed to a light matte appearance, giving a look and feel of a guitar that has been lovingly played and cared for over the years.
