To many Les Paul collectors, the '57 Goldtop Darkback - so called for its darkly finished body and neck backing - is the Holy Grail of vintage guitars. The Gibson Custom 1957 Les Paul Goldtop Darkback Reissue Light Aged is a painstaking re-creation of this bygone icon, faithful from the chunky '50s-profile neck and historic no-wire bridge right down to the radiant gold paint, replica parts, and hot hide glue construction. In addition to its period accuracy, the '57 Goldtop Darkback reissue feature Gibson's Murphy Lab Light Aging to simulate the dings, checking, and patina of decades of casual wear. That's right: this is one axe that comes gently broken in, so you don't have to worry about taking it on the town for a night or two. And that's good news, because once you hear those PAF-inspired Custombucker Alnico III pickups in the flesh and wrap your hand around that heirloom Chunky "C" neck, the Gibson Custom 1957 Les Paul Goldtop Darkback Reissue Light Aged is one relic you may not be able to put down.
