Real clean Historic R6 Gold Top in near new condition, say for some super small impressions on the back without paint loss. Too small to photograph well. Lovely 4.0 Kgs. A very Happy and hard to find guitar!

 

Cut & paste from Gibson.

Glimmering Gold and Sparkling P-90 Pickups

Gibson Custom Shop is the pinnacle of craftsmanship, quality, and sound excellence. Each instrument celebrates Gibson’s legacy through accuracy, authenticity and attention to detail.

1956 was the only full year in which the Les Paul model featured the powerful P-90 pickups and the adjustable ABR-1 bridge setup, a combination that allowed the Les Paul model to intonate, sustain, and thrill like never before. This Gibson Custom Shop ’56 Reissue captures the look, feel and searing sound of an original 1956 Les Paul Goldtop in exhaustive detail, featuring all solid woods, vintage-accurate gold paint, authentic replica parts, Historic narrow/tall frets, and hot hide glue construction.
