Gibson 1957 Goldtop Vintage Original Stock Electric Guitar, Aged Gold

1957 Goldtop Vintage Original Stock Electric Guitar, Aged Gold description:

The Gibson VOS 57 Les Paul Goldtop is a custom shop electric guitar from the Gibson Vintage Original Spec series equipped with BurstBuckers to faithfully replicate the warm, vocal quality and rich harmonic content of the legendary originals.

Seth Lover’s fabled ‘Patent Applied For’ humbucking pickups were added to the Les Paul Model in 1957. These dual coil pickups, quieter yet moie powerful than the single coil P-90s that preceded them, combined with the ABR-1 to create a guitar with unprecedented sustain and tone.
