Description:
The True Historic Series from Gibson Custom feature replica-level detail, from plastics recreated based on lab analysis of original 50's parts, to double-carved top and neck profiles and thin, hand-sanded finishes, they are the most complete, accurate and refined recreations of the guitars that form the mid-century legend of Gibson's solid body range.
By 1956, the promise of Gibson's first solid body guitar model, the Les Paul, was beginning to emerge and evolve into a new standard in guitars.
Today's True Historic replica of the 1956 Goldtop features the original's lightweight aluminum tailpiece and adjustable Tune-O-Matic bridge for reliable play, and that throaty, open tone only two P-90's can deliver.
