This Goldtop looks like it has stories from 1957. Its birth certificate says it’s still too young to have a favorite crayon.

The Murphy Lab gave this one fine lacquer checking, lightly aged nickel hardware, and the look of a Goldtop somebody had the good sense to keep. The Double Gold finish catches the light beautifully, and the dark rosewood board sets it off so well that your first five minutes of ownership will probably be spent tilting it back and forth like you’re checking a steak under the grocery store lights.

Then there’s the neck. This is the fat ’57 carve, measuring .939" at the first fret and 1.029" at the twelfth. If you’ve ever picked up a Les Paul and thought, “I’d like a little more Les Paul back here,” Gibson has taken your feedback seriously. And at 8.7 pounds, the guitar still comes in lighter than the pile of pedals you bought trying to get the sound of two humbuckers and an amp.

Condition & What’s Included

She was born on October 19, 2026, and has never been owned by an end user and is in perfect Murphy Lab-aged condition. It includes the original brown Lifton reissue hardshell case with pink lining, original case candy, and Murphy Lab Certificate. The dated checklist and alternate switch cavity cover are also pictured and included.

If you’ve been waiting for a Goldtop with a proper handful of neck and just the right amount of checking, this is a particularly good one to open the case on. Fair warning to the rest of your collection: the pink lining makes every other guitar case look like it was upholstered by the accounting department.

Whoever brings this baby home is going to be STOKED!!
