Gibson Les Paul 295

The company I love to hate and a hate to love are back with their latest Guitar of the Month and this one is something special. This Gibson Les Paul LP-295 Gold Top is a thing of beauty. Featuring a mahogany body (with maple top) and neck, 50’s rounded neck profile, rosewood fingerboard, 22 frets, Chrome Bigsby bridge, a hand painted ES-295 style pick guard, 57 Classic Plus (bridge) and 57 Classic (neck) humbucker pickups, and the standard Les Paul tone and volume controls, it is a classic styled guitar that makes me want to weep.

Unfortunately I don’t have the spare $3000 to buy one, but if you do, hurry, as there is only a thousand being made.

    Beautiful guitar! I’m weeping with you since the cost is too steep for my wallet. But thank god for pictures and guitar shops!

    Hi Mick - absolutely true, it’s a lovely guitar but too expensive. Personally, I’m adding a B70 Bigsby to my Epiphone 56 Les Paul Gold Top - which is about as close as I’m going to get outside of remortgaging.
