Product information

A true player’s instrument and statement piece, designed for those who appreciate the soul of a vintage Gibson with the reliability of a modern build.

The Gibson Custom Shop exists to honor the golden era of guitar-making, delivering uncompromising craftsmanship, period-correct accuracy, and legendary tone. Few guitars embody that mission better than the 1957 Les Paul Goldtop—a model that has been the trusted tool of countless guitar heroes for generations.

With its elegant gold finish, solid mahogany/maple construction, and powerhouse PAF-style humbuckers, the ’57 Goldtop represents everything a Les Paul should be. This faithful Custom Shop Reissue captures every detail of the original, from the woods and neck carve to the electronics and hardware, delivering the unmistakable feel and sound of a true vintage Gibson.

Finished in Murphy Lab Ultra Light Aging, this Goldtop has the character, vibe, and broken-in feel of a well-loved original—subtle lacquer checking, lightly aged hardware, and a resonance that only comes from expert craftsmanship.
