Members fuzztone Posted June 19, 2010 Members Share Posted June 19, 2010 That model has a mahogany top. Looks like Gibson has taken it down from the website, but it was called a Mahogany Studio. Also weight relieved and 60's neck profile.It used to say it had a maple top like this one Studio Ebony Satin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm no wood expert, maybe someone can tell by the grain pattern.Edit: I'm pretty sure it's mahoganyhttp://www.mylespaul.com/forums/gibson-les-pauls/94171-lp-studio-satin-mahogany-no-truss-rod-tool.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bluesguitar65 Posted June 19, 2010 Members Share Posted June 19, 2010 Well, good news and bad news regarding anyone who ordered from Musicansfriend. I just spoke to a MF rep and told me they sold out of the gold top color and is no longer available for any further orders for that color. Here is a big disappointment here. Those who placed the order for the goldtop may not get it. There were around 100 orders placed for the goldtop and Musicansfriend allocated to recieve 65 goldtops. So the 65 that were able to place an order and recieved and invoice order number are getting a goldtop. Congrats to those. So for those who ordered, and have not recieved an invoice number, just a heads up as you may not get yours. I'm sure this is the same situation with other vendors.

I've always felt that I wasn't at risk for not getting my goldtop from MF, (I ordered mine early in the day the first day they had them available), but this makes me feel that much more reassured that I will be receiving mine. If it helps, my order number is #S02619XXX. That may (loosely) help others guage where they stand in line. Also, there is a thread about this guitar over at http://www.fenderforum.com/forum.html?db=&topic_number=738730 Here are a couple guys on that forum who have posted 'real life' shots of their goldtops. Just scroll down in their profiles to where the photo list is. http://www.fenderforum.com/guestbook.html?user_name=littleuch http://www.fenderforum.com/guestbook.html?user_name=mr%2520black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
