Epiphone 1957 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue Gold Top Електрогітара

The 1957 Les Paul Goldtop is one of the most iconic and sought-after vintage guitars. 1957 was the year the Les Paul truly came into its own with the introduction of humbucker pickups. These pickups, along with the ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge and Stop Bar tailpiece, were defining features that gave the Les Paul its legendary sound and appeal. These features first appeared on the Les Paul Custom in 1953 and on the Goldtop in 1955. The combination of humbuckers and the solid body made the Les Paul into a true rock icon.

Now, Epiphone, in collaboration with Gibson Custom, is proud to present the 1957 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue. This is a stunningly authentic reproduction of the early humbucker-equipped Les Paul Goldtops, offering the vintage Les Paul look and performance at a more accessible price.

It features a genuine mahogany body with a carved plain maple cap and is finished in a new Vintage Gloss version of the classic Goldtop color. The finish gives the guitar a vintage appearance without looking overly aged. The one-piece mahogany neck has a 50s Rounded Medium C profile and a long neck tenon for excellent stability and sustain. The bound rosewood fretboard is adorned with mother-of-pearl trapezoid inlays and is equipped with 22 medium jumbo frets, just like the original 1957 models. It also features a slightly aged mother-of-pearl Epiphone logo and the words “Les Paul Model” silkscreened in gold on the Gibson-style “open book” headstock. The side dot position markers are the same size as those found on vintage 1957 Les Paul Standard models and are placed in historically accurate locations.

The hardware is nickel-plated, including the ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, the Gibson Historic reissue aluminum Stop Bar Tailpiece, and the Epiphone Deluxe “Single Ring” Keystone button tuners. The electronics are top-notch, with two USA Gibson Custombucker humbucking pickups with Alnico 3 magnets, hand-wired to CTS potentiometers, Black Beauty paper-in-oil capacitors, and a Switchcraft pickup selector toggle switch and 1/4” output jack.

A historic-inspired hardshell case with a brown exterior, pink plush interior, and Inspired by Gibson Custom graphics is also included. The 1957 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue is more than just a guitar; it’s a bridge to a symphony of possibilities, ready to help you make your own mark on music history.
