miurasv Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 http://s255.photobucket.com/albums/hh129/miurasv/Gibson%202008/ The sellers pics aren't good but please can you tell what model LP this is. It's described as a 2008 Les Paul Traditional Gold Top with a rare flamed back. I initially thought it may be a Traditional Pro as it has the open coil humbuckers and doesn't say 'Traditional' on the Truss Rod cover but it can't be because these have the Locking Grover Tuners or at least it looks that it doesn't have them in the pics. I asked the seller yesterday if it has a satin back and sides but no reply. Any thoughts? Also can covers be put on those open coils as I prefer the look of them with chromed or nickel covers and if so does it affect the sound quality? Thanks very much in advance for any replies.

GuitarGodV Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Hi, I doubt it is a trad pro. I wouldn't buy it. Seems like hes not giving much info, either. Also, if it is, it looks like its modified :| Victor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigKahune Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 I think the 2008 Les Paul Traditional Gold Top had 57/57+ that were covered. It also had a plain mahogany back. If he's right about the model, it's been modded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
