The blurb from Gibson:
The Gibson Les Paul Standard has become an iconic guitar model and over the past 5 decades has been played by the good and the great, the Les Paul Standard Traditional model shown here in a Goldtop finish, displays all of the great characteristics that we have come to associate with this magnificent instrument. Firstly we have the solid Mahogany body matched with a carved Maple top and Mahogany through neck, then we have the Rosewood fretboard with the Pearl trapezoidal fret inlays. Sound comes courtesy of two '57 Classic Humbucker Alnico V pick-ups which are managed via a rotary tone and volume control for each pick-up along with a 3-position toggle switch located at the right hand shoulder of the instrument ...
As far as the hardware goes the Les Paul Standard Traditional has a Tune-o-Matic bridge and stop bar tail piece which is finished in chrome as are the pick-up covers whilst the kidney shaped machine heads are in white nylon. The cosmetics are finished with a cream floating scratch plate and pick-up saddles along with cream binding along the outer edge of the body which perfectly contrasts the Gold body colour.

Reason for sale: Not using it anymore, which is a shame as its a terrific instrument, Im sure I will live to regret this.
