About this listing
Gibson’s work with Slash has produced a long series of Les Paul models through Gibson USA, Gibson Custom and Epiphone. In 2008 alone, the company released several different Slash instruments, including the Gibson USA Goldtop shown here. Announced in September and released worldwide on 7 October 2008, this version was limited to 1,000 guitars. It was based on Slash’s 1991 Goldtop, a guitar stolen from his collection in 1999. It is a separate model from the later Slash Collection “Victoria” Goldtop.The model follows a traditional Les Paul Standard format but uses a set of Slash-specific details. The neck profile combines the fuller shape associated with late 1950s Les Pauls with the reduced depth of early 1960s examples. Pickups are exposed coil Seymour Duncan Alnico II Pro humbuckers. The gold Slash skull, top-hat and signature graphic on the headstock distinguish it from a regular 2008 Les Paul Standard.This example has seen very little use, with only very minor playwear. The frets are approximately 95%. Weight is 4100g. The original black hardshell case is included and in great condition, with its white interior and exterior Slash motif. Some paperwork is also included, but not the COA.SPECIFICATIONSGeneralModel: Gibson USA Slash Signature Les Paul GoldtopYear: 2008Country of manufacture: USAProduction: Limited to 1,000 guitars worldwideWorldwide release date: 7 October 2008Body style: Les Paul single cutawayOrientation: Right handedBodyBody material: MahoganyBody construction: Solid, unchamberedWeight relief: Gibson traditional drilled weight reliefTop material: Hand-carved mapleTop finish: Bullion GoldBack finish: Aged CherryBody binding: Antique WhiteFinish type: LacquerPickguard: None fittedNeckNeck material: Solid mahoganyNeck construction: Glued set neckNeck profile: Slash hybrid profile combining late 1950s roundness with early 1960s slimnessNeck thickness at 1st fret: 0.800″Neck thickness at 12th fret: 0.875″Neck joint location: 16th fretHeel length: 5/8″Headstock pitch: 17 degreesScale length: 24.75″Nut material: CorianNut width: 1.695″FingerboardFingerboard material: RosewoodFingerboard radius: 12″Number of frets: 22Fret type: Medium jumboFingerboard binding: Antique WhiteInlays: Figured acrylic trapezoidsWidth at 12th fret: 2.260″Bound fingerboard length: 18.137″ElectronicsNeck pickup: Seymour Duncan LCMR Alnico II Pro humbuckerBridge pickup: Seymour Duncan HCMR Alnico II Pro humbuckerPickup configuration: HHControls: Two volume and two tonePickup selector: Three-way toggle switchElectronics: Slash-specified wiring, capacitors, resistors and tone potsHardwareBridge: TonePros Tune-o-maticTailpiece: TonePros stopbarTuners: Kluson-style Gibson Deluxe with keystone buttonsHardware finish: ChromeControl knobs: Amber top hatsPickup rings: CreamStrap buttons: Standard body end and upper rim positionsHeadstock logo: Gibson logo with gold Slash skull, top-hat and signature artworkFactory fret preparation: Plek dressed and set upCase: Black hardshell case with exterior Slash motif and white plush interiorWeight is 4100g
