1958 Gibson Les Paul Standard Gold Top
We are proud to present this superb 1958 Gibson Les Paul Standard Gold Top.
With less than 200 GT's made in 1958 this is without question a very special and exceptionally rare instrument.
This Les Paul Standard is a rock solid 8.5 showing modest but honest wear on the top and a patch of rash on the back. It is otherwise VERY clean with hardly any weather checking.
It features sealed PAF's with perfect stickers that read 7.5 N and a monstrous 9.25 in the B.
The weight is very balanced @ 9 lbs. and offers a very powerful and throaty mid focused tone that is synonymous with the Gibson Les Paul.
The neck is a perfect medium with a soft V measuring .85 at the 1st and .96 at the 12th frets respectively.
The lush Brazilian fretboard is very clean with no divits and boasts its original frets which are also in excellent condition. This 58 Les Paul Standard plays exceptionally well.
This instrument black-lights correctly.
All of the plastics are 58 correct and most likely original.
The one and only nit to pick is this GT had grovers on it at one time; showing only slight opening of the tuner shafts, no extra screw holes, it is back to stock with single lined pat applied tuners which function perfectly.
This 58 is accompanied by a VG+ 5 latch lifton badged case.
This is a tremendous opportunity to own a clean, straight 1958 Gibson Les Paul Standard.
