This limited-edition 2009 Gibson Les Paul Goldtop Piezo is number 99 out of only 250 produced. The guitar is in excellent condition, with no noticeable damage or fret wear. It comes with the original Gibson hard shell case and includes all original case candy. The instrument feels and sounds great, with the L.R. Baggs piezo system functioning perfectly. All strings ring out clearly and are picked up as expected.
Equipped with two active EMG 85 pickups, this guitar offers a wide range of tones—from high-output metal to shimmering cleans. The “M” output jack sends only the magnetic EMG signal, while the “A” output jack blends both the magnetic and piezo signals. This allows for routing to different amps or channels for versatile live and studio setups.
The Les Paul Piezo may be one of the most versatile guitars Gibson has ever produced. Finished in a deep, lustrous gold, the guitar features striking aesthetic details including mirrored Top Hat knobs, gold tuning keys, and hand-scraped antique binding—making it a visual standout as well as a sonic powerhouse.
Bridging classic design with modern innovation, the Piezo model incorporates L.R. Baggs' renowned piezo bridge system alongside the trusted power of dual EMG 85 pickups. This combination allows for seamless transitions between electric and acoustic-like tones, or for unique blends of both. It’s a dream instrument for players looking to expand their tonal possibilities on stage or in the studio.
