Gibson Custom

collapse expand iconDescription

The Gibson Custom 1954 Les Paul Standard Goldtop Reissue left-handed electric guitar perfect recaptures the look, feel and tone of the originals. From Freddie King to Jeff Beck, many great pickers have been attracted to the unique character of the “wraparound” tailpiece of a 1954 Les Paul Goldtop. Some believe its direct link to the body stud screws maximizes sustain while others believe the wraparound bar creates a distinct tonality and vocal quality. Whatever the case, there is certainly something special about this early year in the Les Paul model’s history.
