1956 Gibson Les Paul Gold Top at Norman's Rare Guitars

[Malam4rco]

lonely is the night!

[alwaysopen]

That thing was never played since the day it was bought. The headstock looks brand new and the finish is too perfect. My 75 goldtop has been played and looks nothing like that. Mine has checking and the gold shows through as green at spots like it is supposed to.

Repro??

[btowel]

i like it

[dragonkin9]

Baby Please Don't Go! perfect song to play!

[matuschkas]

[thozgyz]

Really? You have that guitar and you play lonely is the night, through that shit fender? Come on now!

[JoeyRec]

@thozgyz Shut the fuck up it sounded good. Fenders are amazing amps what are you 11 years old?

[JilaX]

@JoeyRec He's not saying all Fenders are shit, he's saying the Hot Rod Deville is shit, which is way different.

I agree that something like a Vibrolux or an old Bassman would have done it more justice, but I agree, it sounded all right.

[jeffcallisto]

hmm, priced at what?......15,000?

[Floridaboy7777]

@jeffcallisto Not to be that "one guy" who corrects everyone, but Goldtop les pauls from 54-56 (P90) models can actually go up to 30K. although 15K is a fair price in this economy :)

HOW MUCH !! MW LONDON

[phillegru]

i want you to play "psychosocial"with that gibson and that rivera..\m/

[TheF86Sabre]

54/55 Maybe I don't think its a 56.

[figbat1]

hello normans rare guitars. have you read my theory? ive got 196 days to go. its only appropriate that i buy this guitar to keep my 56 strat happy in the back of my 56 thunderbird. consider this guitar sold and book it up to dennis richardson care of the australian branch of the mickey mouse club. ill drop in and see you guys when i get to america and will fix any medical complaints you may have for free. regards.

[kutsbothways]

56? Early year or something? Thought the 56 had the tunable bridge. Used to play a real 56 had the new, for that year, tunable bridge. I guess theres all kinds of oddity's out there though. Transitions models, protos, etc.

[59TweedVibrolux]

Amp doesn't do it justice. Any chance of putting it through a Marshall or Vox to hear some clean chime to P-90 grind. Cheers.

[rw5791]

@59TweedVibrolux a lot of people don't seem to understand that the amp is half the tone.Even a modified import can tear it up when paired with a killer tube amp.

[59TweedVibrolux]

@rw5791 100%. Put this through a Vintage JTM 45 or JMP , Vintage Fender Tweed , BF or Good modern clone of these and the result will be a huge improvement.
