2013 Gibson Les Paul Goldtop - modded to '54 spec by Tony Berrington this guitar started life as a 2013 Gibson ‘50s Tribute Wine Red. Tony identified that the top carve on these models from this year was the closest Gibson has produced to the original ‘54 outside of the custom shop, and set about transforming it to ‘54 spec. This is not a case of just adding some period correct hardware and a refin, it is a total rework of the guitar:
New inlays, binding, reworked fingerboard, reshaping the headstock, new correct headstock logo inlay, side dots and more. The attention to detail is outstanding.
Monty's 50s wiring.
Comes with 2 sets of pickups; Currently installed Seymour Duncan Mini humbuckers and a set of Bareknuckle P90's
Comes with a Gibson hard case.
