2006 Gibson Les Paul Classic Gold Top. Weighing in at 9.8 lbs this may actually be a pre 2004 non-chambered body. It has the correct pups with chrome covers found on the earlier LP Classics or it could simply be an add on. The original HSC included also predates the 2006 models which may be a further indication that this guitar may pre-date the >2004 chambered bodies giving it added sustain and value but I have priced it based on the s/n dating. According to Gibson I was told it’s quite possible this guitar was built with an NOS body or given the HSC was a custom order, who knows. I can say that when plugged in the guitar wants to immediately come alive. You can actually feel it in the strings as if the guitar wants to breakout, accelerate and escape. Hard to explain, kind of like a car with a stock engine that behaves like one that has been blueprinted. If you play enough guitars long enough you will come across one of these every so often. This is as near a perfect Les Paul for a 10 year old that is not an ornament on someones wall but has actually been played. It has clean pots, tight switching, little to no fret wear, only 2 very minor indents on the body that are not through the finish and too slight to capture with a camera and a small finish check on the upper left side of the headstock face which I have tried to capture in the photos. The neck is pencil straight with plenty of truss rod adjustment available. I certainly have played this guitar over the years but it’s one of many I own and not my daily player so it’s time for me to make room for something else in my stable. This guitar has not left my small home music room since I acquired it some years back and every guitar I own or have owned is meticulously maintained and babied. There are no smokers here so it’s clean clean clean…. I also keep my strings fresh and only use Thomastik-Infeld flat wounds so if you’re into the very high end strings, this LP has a pretty new set of JS111 Jazz Flatwounds.
