2010 Gibson Historic ’57 Les Paul Figured

R7, reissue historic ’57 Les Paul reissue, well kinda. 98% of 1957
Les Pauls were goldtops. They made 589 of them in ’57. But we digress.

You might say we buy wood. It’s exciting when a guitar comes in with great looking wood. This is one of nicest maple tops we’ve seen all year. At 8.7 pounds it’s very light for a Lester. The factory must have found some killer wood and made these as a limited edition. It has also been upgraded with Throbak pickups. Our favorite! Expect inspiring tone and great note separation even with high gain. This came from one of our favorite customers who took very good care of it. It does have a few scratches but is really quite clean. The neck is .94” At the first and 1.02” at the twelfth fret which adds to its sustain. It also shows no fret wear. This fantastic guitar comes with the original COA and hang tags in the original hard case.
