Real Epiphone

[Bristol Kids]

After seeing what fake Grovers look like on the topics page via email I checked and mine are real. Sweet. I have a '56 reissue Goldtop Epiphone Les Paul, circa 2009, with case. Love to play that and my Epi Red Special. no doubt. This Guitar has P-90's. It's sound has come to represent our band sound. I have no idea if the body is based on the Epi LP Standard but I love this guitar.

Welcome to Epi-Talk. The Goldtop is too shiny for me, but I like P90s.

Welcome in Bristol, I like goldtop LPs but there is a bunch more on my list before I rush out and buy one. Checked out your website and I like it, thanks for sharing....

Welcome! I've got a couple of P90 Lester's; my first was an '09 '56 Goldtop that I've done a little bit of modding to. Great guitar and I'm always happy when I pick it up.

It's a shame to cover some of those tops. (Gibby's)

When it comes to Goldtop Epi's.... It's just not a look I like.

Hello,
I could use a gold top and might check out one someday to get into P90s. I've always admired the look.

Sweet rig!

welcome..
my main guitar is a goldtop, epiphone les paul standard. and i fucking love it.
it wasnt even the guitar i wanted to buy when i went to the store, but the one i had an eye one was already sold earlier that morning (was a epi lp standard with a flame marble but it had a ding in the headstock so it was sold with a discount).
so after trying out a few epi lp's out i fell in love with a epi lp standard goldtop (replaced the bridge with a wilkinson roller bridge, new tusq nut and replaced the pups with probuckers).
i dont mind the color what so ever, it kinda reminds me of oldschool lp's. and several of my all time favorite guitar players have a goldtop in their collection (mike mccready, stone gossard, slash, garry moore and many more).
i weild it proudly.. cheers

There are gold tops and then there are gold tops. I've seen some that look like a 12 year old girls phone case, all sparkly and loud looking, then I've seen other's that just look majestic.
