1973 Gibson Les Paul 'Gold Top'

My main guitar for so many years! 'Goldie', originally a Deluxe, is highly recognisable to anyone who has seen me play at just about any stage of my life - I have used her in virtually every band I have ever played in. She has standard wiring; however that's a real 1959 PAF in the neck!.

Her sound and playability are still the yardstick for any other solid body guitar I look at. This was the main guitar used on the infamous No Turning Back album in 1989, and again on my 2010 album Electric Mojo Machine.
