INFO:
The Holy Grail Les Pauls are the 58s-60s fetching most of any solid body guitar.
Half of the '58s were Goldtop before Sunburst took over as main color.
NOTABLE FOR 58's:
- The neck was still a nice chunky rounded "C"
- Of both colors, small amount left the factory with a Bigsby B-7 Vibrato (Sells for less than hardtail)
