The Gibson Custom 1956 Les Paul Standard Reissue Light Aged All Gold takes one of the most iconic P-90 Les Paul formats and gives it a striking full-gold treatment. Finished in Light Aged nitrocellulose lacquer, this limited Gibson Custom build captures the feel of a well-kept vintage guitar with a look that goes beyond the standard Goldtop formula.

The mahogany body and carved maple top deliver the familiar Les Paul foundation: sustain, midrange, and a strong fundamental response. The All Gold finish extends the visual identity across the instrument, paired with gold hardware, cream plastics, cream soapbar pickup covers, and gold Top Hat knobs.

A mahogany neck with a Chunky 1950s Chunky D profile gives the guitar a substantial vintage-style feel. The rosewood fingerboard features aged trapezoid inlays, single-ply binding, a 12" radius, narrow tall frets, and a nylon nut.

A pair of P-90 pickups provides the direct, dynamic voice that made early Les Paul Standards so important. The traditional two-volume, two-tone control layout and 3-way toggle keep the guitar simple, familiar, and easy to control from the stage or studio.
