• Guys, we've spent considerable money converting the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and we have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!

Berniece (spelled like that) is the name on the mint 4 latch case. So I named the guitar after its former owner.

1954 les Paul Goldtop, 8.5lbs

The condition (and tone) is nothing short of spectacular

I've always wanted a wrap tail Goldtop because of Muddy, Freddie King , Carl Perkins (trapeze), and Mike Bloomfield. Mine arrived just in time for Christmas and this is what it must have been lke to get one of these in 1954
