Gibson Custom Shop '57 Les Paul VOS 2014 - Goldtop Darkback

Product Description

Here we have a nice '57 Les Paul Goldtop Darkback from 2014! This VOS finish guitar is in very good overall condition.

Spec include a maple top, mahogany body, mahogany neck, and rosewood fretboard. It has a no-wire ABR-1 bridge, lightweight stop tailpiece, and Deluxe tuners with pearloid buttons. The pickups are a set of Custombuckers.

It is in very good condition with some player wear to note. There are a handful of small, light dings over the body as well as some light surface scratches and marks. The back of the neck has an area of topical marks that cannot be felt while playing. The hardware and finish show light patina from the VOS treatment, but that may have also oxidized a bit more over time. There are a couple paint chips at the tip of the cutaway horn too.

It weighs in at 9lbs 4oz. The neck measures .940 to 1.040 at the 1st and 12th. It has almost a D carve to it, but with a medium shoulder that doesn't feel too full. The guitar has nice resonance with a lively sound off the body. It has warm mids, good clarity and plenty of sustain. It feels nice under the picking hand and bends easily. Overall a fine example with some light player wear!

Ships in the original case and includes the COA, hang tags, warranty card, and extra toggle switch plate.
