Gibson 1955 Les Paul Goldtop Factory Original
$65,000
SHIPPING OFFERED
GIBSON Les Paul Goldtop , 1955 all gold model, guitar is totally stock, no breaks or repairs, there are some dings and dents here and there as you would expect on a guitar that's 68 years old, but its still really nice and clean.
Still fitted with the 50s small original fret wire with plenty of meat left, There is obviously noticeable wear is to the back of neck, which is typical of all-gold Gibsons, the usual greening to the topcoat on rear of neck from contact with the player’s hand.
The gold colour overall is very strong without much fade at all , the top as you can see is really nice, many of these Goldtops get that ugly horizontal heavy craze lines that go dark over time and spoil the look of the top, this guitars top looks really clean a bit of green and wear on the top edge but overall you can see it very nice
The two P-90 pickups and all wiring rig components are all original including the waxy Grey Tiger capacitor. The plating on top of the tailpiece is still shiny and clean.
The original Kluson Deluxe machines still work well and show no shrinkage to tuner buttons.
This is a fantastic sounding guitar, i mean really it has balls, a few high end profile musos have played this and same comment this is a good one no doubt, and a great example of why players fell in love with Gibson’s original solid body in the first place. Includes the original Brown hard case
These guitars are very undervalued, the guitar market like most things took a dive when the GFC hit around 2007, but guitars are a extremely good investment and these Goldtops were selling for much more before the crash
But if your in the guitar world you know they are creeping back up again and you just wont find a better Goldtop at this price, if your in Australia do the math try getting a original 50’s goldtop out from the usa with all the taxs and shipping and RISK of is it the real deal, and will it arrive in one piece, its not going to happen
And its just not guitar dealers or private collectors like myself collecting or selling these guitars, Auction houses are doing major auctions now and all kinds of people are now buying guitars for play and investment,
I have other high end vintage guitars you can see on my site, vintageguitarsaustralia.com this guitar and others you will find
I know of many high end guitars not listed anywhere but i can obtain for a serious buyer, most are high end fenders or Gibsons so if you looking for a nice custom colour or 50's maple strat or maybe a nice black gaurd tele or esquire , we all like those give me a call,
No refins or messed with guitars here, only dead stock clean no excuse real deal vintage guitars
