This 1996 Gibson Custom Shop R7 Les Paul is a finely crafted reissue of the iconic 1957 Goldtop. It features a solid mahogany body with a carved maple top, a chunky ’50s-style neck profile, and dual humbuckers for rich, vintage-inspired tone. The goldtop finish has gently aged over time, adding to its classic appeal. A true player’s piece from the early days of the Custom Shop. It includes the original hardshell case. 

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
