Gibson CS Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 look legit to me, multiply binding on body and headstock, gold hardware, and grovers but are supremes made in the USA or are they a custom shop model? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaresz Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 From what I can see it looks to be real. The serial number is also valid, though I would suggest that you stop displaying it openly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iownanlps Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Yep it looks like the real deal. I think a Supreme goldtop is the business Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Martin Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 It is completely genuine and original. What you have there is the Guitar of the Week 2007 (Week #22). They did not produce more than 400 of these guitars, but there could be even less than that. They retailed around $3500 USD if I remember correctly. An amazing and unique guitar...if I would of had the cash, I probably would have bought one of those instead of my LP Standard Goldtop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

littlekenny Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 The supremes look pretty sick but I probably wouldn't get one if I had the money, mainly because you cant access the electronics at all and the headstock inlay is too flashy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The toggle switch is a little tricky but the channeling runs in a straight line from the Jack Plate access. There is a good explanation here with pics; Supreme Story As I have noted before this set up is not unlike an ES 335. Anyway the electronics are top notch and so are the pickups so unless anything goes wrong 'I ain't bovvered'. For the record mine weighs 3.5kg or 7.7lbs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cudamax2343 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 It's a goldtop SUPREME. Only 400 made. DUUUUUUUUUUUHHHHHHHHH! ;-P Good one, you smart ***. I agree with you and under 400 made does make it unique. I own 3 of the gotw's just because of the 400 or less special run and want one of the unoffical ace 3-pickup custom classic models that everybody still seems to have in stock from 07.
