'79 Les Paul Deluxe Goldtop

The last 70's guitar of the bunch is a Les Paul Deluxe. This was the workhorse of the LP's during the 70's and is essentially a Standard with mini-humbuckers. You could also get it with P-90's like this one. My first real electric guitar was Goldtop Deluxe, in the early 70's. By the time this one was made, production had shifted from Kalamazoo to Nashville, which became the "modern" home of Gibson. All instruments presented after this one were made in Nashville.
