Happy New Guitar Day--she's a beauty!

The goldtops always look so funky and cool at the same time...

What's the neck profile--50's or 60's?


It's a 50's all the way, it has that nice fat feal, and the pickups are 57. :D

Congrats Danny she's a beauty for sure,as soon as I saw her I thought she would be right up Blinker's alley and of course judging by his response I was right.

Great looking guitar, there's a cool vid here, http://www.gibson.com/en-us/Lifestyle/F ... 0210-2012/ of Les Paul playing a gold top back in the day, plus everything else you already know about them.

A "black gold" top? That would get oil all over your clothes! :P

Great minds think alike, but I thought twice about the pun. However, considering the nature of our relationship, I'll go halfzie on this. :oops:
BTW: Nice aquisition that. His narrative kind of reminded me of that classic TV commercial in which the young entertainer asks the old guy for his name and the reply is "It's on your guitar". :wink:

Beautimous! The color Gold isn't my favor, speaking of actual colors, not guitars, but I love it on a guitar.
She looks both classy but, well spunky for lack of a better word all at once,
Have Fun! (:

"Spunky" is really quite an appropriate word to use in her description. 8)
