Historically accurate reissue of the 1956 Les Paul Goldtop.

With the Gibson 1956 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue VOS Double Gold the Gibson Custom Shop presents a historically correct special model, which should appeal especially to fans of classic Fifties Paulas from the pre-humbucker era. The Les Paul in the style of the year 1956 represents here the only instrument of the era that combines a double P90 equipment with the advantages of the resonant and adjustable Tune-o-Matic/Stopbar combination and has an extremely unique sound character.

GIBSON 1956 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue VOS Double Gold #62207
The Gibson 1956 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue VOS Double Gold with two Custom Soapbar P90 pickups and No-Wire ABR-1 bridge presents itself as a true Mid Fifties Les Paul.

The neck, glued with Long Neck Tenon and Hide Glue, comes in a bold "'50s Rounded Medium C" profile.

Traditional construction for unmistakable Les Paul feel.

Built as a classic Fifties LP, only traditional woods come together in familiar construction as part of the Gibson 1956 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue VOS Double Gold . The body of the 56 Les Paul is constructed of one-piece, lightweight mahogany for strap balance and is finished with a two-piece maple top and additional Royalite binding. All glue joints are historically correct with hot hide glue. The mahogany neck of the 1956 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue VOS Double Gold represents the boldly turned out "'50s Rounded Medium C" profile of the mid '50s Les Pauls, providing enough wood for confident chord playing and expressive leads. The unmistakable Paula feeling is also perfectly noticeable here on the rosewood fingerboard through the use of Historic Narrow Tall fretwires in the original format of the early models.

GIBSON 1956 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue VOS Double Gold #62207 Body
Two Gibson Custom P-90 pickups and hand-wired circuitry with Paper-in-Oil capacitors deliver authentic vintage rock sounds.

P-90 pickups from Custom Shop

As the last Les Paul before the famous PAF-era instruments with double humbucker equipment, the Gibson 1956 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue VOS Double Gold represents the distinctive sound of two in the Gibson Custom Shop wound Custom Soapbar P90 pickups. The two Alnico single coils in the cream-colored Soapbar housing combine the powerful Attack of the single coil with powerful mids thanks to their wider coil winding and are still one of the most popular pickup designs for classic rock sounds. Both pickups are controlled by hand-wired electronics with high-quality CTS pots for volume and tone control and Paper-in-Oil capacitors for harmonic Treble roll-offs.
