Combines the Les Paul's legendary characteristics with avant-garde features that keep it one step ahead of everything else.
Gibson USA's LP-295 Goldtop is Gibson's Guitar of the Month for April 2008 and sets the classic appointments
of Gibson's renowned ES-295 onto the body and neck of the celebrated Les Paul. The standard Les Paul cutaway gives way to
the wider Florentine cutaway normally found on such legendary Gibson models as the Byrdland, the ES-175, and the ES-295.
The
LP-295's hand-painted, cream-colored pickguard with gold flowers is also styled after the ES-295, as are the split parallelogram
inlays, and the chrome Bigsby tailpiece. Graphite nut and bridge saddles offer better string control when using the Bigsby.
The guitar's body is solid mahogany with a maple top and single-ply cream binding, smoothed with Gibson's classic Goldtop
finish. The headstock is also bound in single-ply cream binding and sports Gibson's traditional holly symbol.
The neck
is the standard Les Paul mahogany neck with a '50s rounded profile and rosewood fingerboard. In the neck position, Gibson's
'57 Classic pickup delivers warm, full tone with a balanced response, packing that classic Gibson PAF humbucker crunch. The
'57 Classic Plus is the perfect bridge-position companion to the '57 Classic, inspired by the design of the original PAFs
of the late 1950s and the early 1950s. The Gibson LP-295 is versatile enough for all styles of music and playing, and an admirable
addition to Gibson's current lineup of special edition guitars. Like all of Gibson USA's Guitars of the Month, production
is limited to just 1,000 guitars. Comes in a custom Guitar of the Month case.
