This is a Gibson Custom Billy Gibbons Les Paul Gold Top Pinstriped VOS. Attention Collectors!!!! This is #2 out of 150 VOS Guitars. Billy has #1. This guitar is used but in excellent shape. It has a VOS finish so it is slightly aged. This guitar is very lightweight for a Les Paul weighing in at 7.4 lbs. And it is one of the most resonant and toneful sounding Les Paul's we've ever played. And we have the original box that it shipped in too. Billy F. Gibbons doesn’t pull any stylistic or tonal punches, so you’d expect his take on the seminal Les Paul Goldtop to be a knockout—and it is.
The first ground-up revision of Gibson’s stunning original solidbody electric in over 60 years is a masterpiece of style. In addition to its luscious goldtop finish, it features a unique pinstripe design created by Billy himself, which is hand-recreated one at a time by respected hotrod-pinstripe artist Rick Harris and a Gibson artist trained personally by Rick. Sonically and visually, the guitar blows the doors off the venue with a neck profile measured precisely from the Rev’s own Les Paul, ultra-light construction, custom electronics, and a pair of Seymour Duncan Pearly Gates pickups.
There were 150 VOS models out the Limited Run of 300 guitars. And this guitar is #2 out of the 150 VOS Guitars.
