The Gibson 1968 Les Paul Standard Goldtop Reissue is a carefully crafted replica of a 1968 'first batch' example, featuring a crown inlay on the headstock. The distinctive appearance and scarcity of this variant makes it extremely popular with collectors. Custom Shop has recreated it in extensive detail, from the 14 degree head angle to the thick cutaway binding and the precise contours and profiles. Not only does it offer a vintage ownership experience, but an incredibly inspiring sound and feel with every chord.

With its maple top and solid mahogany body, the 1968 Goldtop Reissue demonstrates quality, craftsmanship and a timeless design. The Authentic '68 Medium C-Shape neck provides classic comfort and playability, while the period-true ABR-1 bridge, 'Stop Bar' tailpiece and Gibson Deluxe Double Line tuners provide tuning stability at all times. The Custom Soapbar P-90 pickups deliver a classic Les Paul tone reminiscent of the very first models. They are controlled by the well-known two volume and tone controls and a Switchcraft switch.

The Gibson Les Paul is one of, if not the most iconic electric guitar ever made. This superb reissue of a 1968 'First Batch' Goldtop matches all the charisma, tone and pure playability of the original.
