Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Designed as a Gibson Custom Historic Series take on a 1957 Goldtop, this VOS reissue uses a lightweight solid-mahogany body beneath a two-piece plain maple top. The long-tenon mahogany neck has the listed medium-chunky shape, paired with a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard and narrow-tall fretwire. Two humbucking pickups, a three-way switch, and independently assigned volume and tone controls provide the working control scheme. VOS nitrocellulose lacquer covers the body and neck, and the guitar includes its hardshell case and certificate of authenticity.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players looking for a Goldtop Historic Series reissue with a medium-chunky neck and narrow-tall frets.
