The Gibson Custom Shop 1957 Les Paul Goldtop Bigsby Aged 2014 is a stunning tribute to one of the most iconic guitars in rock history, meticulously crafted to embody the soul of a well-loved vintage instrument. Featuring a hand-carved maple top over a solid mahogany body, it’s finished in a beautifully aged nitrocellulose Goldtop lacquer, masterfully relic’d to replicate decades of natural wear. The Custom Shop’s aging process is truly next-level, with intricate weather checking, subtle dings, and oxidized hardware that make it look and feel like an authentic ‘50s road warrior. Paired with a Bigsby B7 vibrato, this guitar delivers not only vintage aesthetics but also expressive playability. The Custom Bucker pickups, wound to vintage PAF specs, bring warm, dynamic tones with incredible clarity and sustain, ensuring this Goldtop sounds as legendary as it looks.

This 2014 Custom Shop reissue also features a hand-shaped mahogany neck with the sought-after ‘50s chunky profile, delivering an incredibly comfortable playing experience. The rosewood fingerboard, adorned with classic trapezoid inlays, provides a smooth, resonant touch, further enhanced by the carefully aged finish that subtly softens the feel of the instrument. The super tasteful lacquer checking adds a level of realism that only the best aging processes can achieve, ensuring that every inch of the guitar tells a story. Complementing the aesthetic is a set of aged Kluson tuners, an ABR-1 bridge, and the gracefully worn Bigsby tailpiece, offering both rock-solid stability and vintage vibrato charm. Whether you're chasing the creamy, articulate sustain of a true ‘50s Les Paul or simply appreciate the unmatched artistry of Gibson’s aging process, this 1957 Les Paul Goldtop Bigsby Aged is an absolute masterpiece of tone and timeworn beauty.
