dream of yes

Thanks for responding! It says Gibson - A division of Norlin Industries. Yikes! I was just reading about Norlin Gibsons - I guess this guitar isn't from a good era.

Hi, My neighbor sold me an old Goldtop Les Paul that he had sitting around in a closet for decades. He says he bought it for his son-in-law in the 80's, but the kid never played it. Serial number is printed on headstock "3 0181". The paperwork that came with it says model 3-0181, Lot 3153. Les Paul Standard HG Reissue. (photo attached.) I've attached photos including the pots attached to the nobs inside the body. When was this made? Thank you for helping me!
