I saw one at my local shop last weekend. Very rad guitar....I wish they made those when I bought my LP studio.

wtr your picture needs you to be a member of the site hosting it.

anyways, yeah the one I saw was the tobacco burst color which is probably what I would choose if I were to buy one (the white might get consideration)

Bloody hell, i've had a thing for goldtops for years. The price sounds great, hope they hit the uk.

Looks quite nice. That wiring is a goddamn mess though.

goldtop is awesome! I'm gonna need one now.

Matte clearcoat over gold doesn't look as bad as I might've expected, though I'd agree that no binding on the neck looks weird.

Still, if I were Gibson I'd put this line out en masse.

Luv it. Sadly, it's a limited run.

I'd french polish the shit out of it
