  • Description: It's a 1954 Gibson Les Paul Gold Top. We purchased this very nice example from actor, martial artist, and musician Steven Seagal. This baby has everything …it’s all original, has two screaming P-90’s, a great neck, and will ship in its original Lifton, brown with pink lining, five latch hard shell case. This guitar is all original. The tuning machines and truss rod work as was intended. The frets are original and have some wear but there is still plenty of playing time left. There is some very typical checking in the finish on both the front and back and there is a small spot (on the body where it meets low E side of the neck) where the finish was lost (see photos). Overall, this is a very nice looking guitar. This classic Gold Top has two very well matched screaming P-90 pick ups. The neck pickup reads 7.60 k ohms and the bridge pickup reads 7.79 k ohms, both measured at the output jack. The potentiometer’s date codes are on the sides so we could only clearly see one of them which reads the 19th week of 1953. This Gold Top weighs in at 8 ½ lbs and will be professionally packed with care.
