Gibson 50th Ann Gold LP Custom

[Larz]

Just saw that new Gibson Custom Shop 1957 50th Anniversary Les Paul Custom in the gold finish at my local GC.

Visually stunning, as was the pricetag.

[Larz]

Nobody may care but I was reading in the GC circular that with your purchase of the custom gold guitar you will be invited to take a private tour of the Gibson Custom Shop in Nashville.

those look horrible imo. esp the headstock.
this is the one that was in the recent GC mailer?

[rjohnstone]

I got the same mailer... looks hideous.

[Joe_Steeler]

I saw it too....
If some people like and buy Deans, there has got to be a market for these as well. C'mon.

Way to much bling for me. I have 4 Les Pauls, and thankfully I don't feel the need for any more (well, there is a 2003 R0 Brazillian on ebay, but at $6,900 the last time I checked, it's way out of my ballpark already).

[Robert Burns]

I saw 2 of them in person...$8900.00 ? I think was the price... headstock
is an attention grabber, but i wouldnt say it was right, or good looking on
this LP. They are nice, but imo $4K nice

[Larz]

Yes, it was the one in the circular. Not a LP guy myself but it does grab your attention in person and the case too. Perfect guitar for Sha Na Na to tour with.
