1958 Les Paul Goldtop

Premier Guitar April 2008

This gold beauty belongs to Ray Bellizia of Whirlwind Music Distributors. Ray bought the guitar in 1974 from a butcher shop. Two years later, it was snatched from the stage during a break in the set at a show, but was recovered after security chased the perpetrator for several blocks. Only the tuners and jack plate have been replaced.

Beautiful guitar. Lester William Polfuss was a smart man.
