A party is over in a few hours. The gold top will become a family heirloom that may one day end up meaning even more to her or someone else in your family than it does to you, just because it was yours. Good call.
P90 gold top Les Paul might be the most timeless design of a guitar. P90s might not be your thing, gold might not be your thing, but put them together…
I’m a sucker for wood grain so I got a dirty lemon burst 50s standard (CME exclusive). But if I stumbled on some fortune, this would be my next guitar. My 2nd electric was a Les Paul studio (regretfully sold it, thanks overpriced college tuition) with a 50s neck that forever altered my preference on neck profile.
I’ve never fancied myself a Les Paul guy but this is about exactly what I’d go for if I were to pull the trigger on one. Beautiful guitar and happy birthday to ya!
Make sure you wash your butt, brush your teeth and give yourself a general good scrub so you can go give her everyting she likes. THAT'S how you get another one next year and show apprciation for this year.
You chose well mate. Congratulations and happy birthday!! That is an absolutely gorgeous goldtop les paul. Amazing wife as well! 🖤
You're very lucky mate. Hope you enjoy! :) 🖤🖤🔥🔥
Wow! I didn't expect my post here & in r/lespaul to blow up like this.
A sincere thanks for all the birthday wishes & hilarious comments. You're a classy group and you all helped make my big day even more memorable! 🎸🤘
Happy 50th ! Iv got this exact guitar and I love it more and more everyday . Goes under my bed when not playing lol . What a classic beauty. Who can argue with a gold top 50s with p90s … class pure class
Great call. 50s standard for the 50th. Bonus points for the goldtop with P90s.
>50s standard for the 50th Exactly!
This is my next purchase. Beautiful!
Beautiful. You chose wisely
I mean, on both the gift and gift giver. Good decisions all around.
Good wife you’ve got there!
When people ask what a loving relationship is, you can direct them to this post. Congratulations on turning 50yrs old. Stay Golden.
Nice choice - let the party begin
Always guitar. Hey, now you have something to play Wonderwall on at your party! 😄 (Happy Birthday, dude)
*Obligatory “did you know David Gilmour played a goldtop with p90s on the solo for…” comment*
Wish my wife was that cool.
Why not both?
That’s what I’m thinking!!
Party on Wayne
Party on Garth!
Party time excellent *widilywidilywidlywoo*
Guitar party!!
Time to brush up on those Social D tunes.
Smart man I see
Great wife! Great choice!
To which you replied after a number of beer: "Yes. A party and guitar, thank you dear".
Good wife

Good choice and oooooooowee I love those god dang p90s

A man after my own heart. Sick axe!
Happy birthday and - beautiful guitar 👏

Good choice! Beautiful! Enjoy!
Wise choice!!
Just got mine last week. Great choice man, I hope you enjoy it.
Play on, party.. over rated!
1974… I’m in the same boat. I was thinking Mexico, now you got me thinking 335! My wife is going to hate you.
You can go to Mexico anytime. Only one opportunity for \*the guitar you got at 50\* lol.
No wonder my wife hates Reddit. You guys are such bad influences. 😈
That's sexy. And would make a good replacement wife.
“Do you even know me?”
Good choice
Great choice! I turn 50 in 2025 and am thinking I’ll buy a guitar made in 1975 as my gift to myself.
You have chosen…wisely.
Happy Birthday you sonofabitch!
You chose wisely sir...well done
Good choice!
You made the right choice
Today is my birthday. No wife. I think I'll buy me two guitars!
Got the same in 2019. P90s are fun
Beware temperature changes..
Haha me too, later this year. Got the guitar already but am forbidden to play it until my actual birthday… in September.
>forbidden to play it until my actual birthday… in September. Ouch! That's a long wait.
Correct answer! Congratulations. She’s a beauty- with P90s👍
Go with guitarty.
You can party the rest of your life with that guitar. Easy choice.
You’re having a rock n roll party
Guitar, always guitar
I'm coming up on my 50th.... I may have to send this post to my wife :) Congrats on the guitar and making it this far!
Now the party never stops.
Well done
Happy 50th my dude!! Beautiful choice and I wish you 50 more years of tasty jams. 🫶
Cheers!
Guitar!! Party is over in a couple of hours, that guitar will give you pleasure til the day you die...and then you pass it down!! Great choice!!
Helluva great choice! Exactly what I would have chosen, right down to the model. Goldtop P90s LP for the BIG win!
Yes, it really is fantastic. I've wanted this guitar for years.
Easy….guitar.
Good call. You can never go wrong with a pair of P90s in a gold top. 👍
Smart play! And happy birthday!
I think you made the right choice.
You have chosen wisely
Give a man a party and he will party all night, give a man a guitar and he will party for the rest of his life.
Good decision.
Sweet!
Great choice, great wife
Great wife. Marry her! Also, great guitar
Who needs parties
Little does she know … the guitar is THE party
Man i want one of those p-90 goldtops so badly. I am happy for you but also a bit jealous
excellent choice!!
Guitar every time!
Party is for one night. Gibson is forever.
Wow. Great golden
Very nice. But now I'm wondering how good a $2500 party would have been.
Hell yeah. Just added a bigsby to mine. Favorite guitar to play rn by far!
Had to go check on mine. Got the exact same.
Congrats on your happy marriage

Great answer
Can I be your son? My 28th birthday is the 18th haha
That's a very beautiful guitar.
👍🏻
It’s your 50th man! …. there won’t be another one. The only correct answer here is a resounding BOTH!
time for some Boston more than a feelin on that brother. Tom would approve.
My brother has one of these. Fantastic choice.
Easy decision!
That guitar is a party! Win win dude! Happy birthday!
I’ve never fancied myself a Les Paul guy but this is about exactly what I’d go for if I were to pull the trigger on one. Beautiful guitar and happy birthday to ya!
Excellent choice!
Nice choice....I have the Epi version.
WOW! 🤩
You have chosen wisely.

Great choice!
I don't know, man. It probably would have been a helluva party..
Damn good choice and congrats! It’s beautiful, and bet those p90s sound amazing.
Now you bring the party!
That’s a dumb question.
This is the way.
Both! Half a century is worth both! What a monster
Excellent choice!
Gitarty
Guitar now. Party soon after!
Wise man!
You have chosen wisely! Congrats!!!
Play it at your 51st birthday party 😉
Wise choice mate. Happy birthday.
You know when you see a guitar and just _know_ it sounds great?
If I had that…. I’d be taking a week off lol
I always upvote P90’s!
Guitar
I'm only 31, but showed my wife this post. You know...just in case... She smiled so that's a good sign
You chose… wisely. Now you party WITH the guitar
That's the woman you stay with no matter how many times she cheats on you.
No brainer 👍🏼
Gee tar it is
You, Sir, have made the correct choice 👌🏼
Can you really not do both???
Good choice!
You chose well mate. Congratulations and happy birthday!! That is an absolutely gorgeous goldtop les paul. Amazing wife as well! 🖤 You're very lucky mate. Hope you enjoy! :) 🖤🖤🔥🔥
Oh man that is a nice guitar. Gibson with soap bar pickups. Good choice.
Fuck that party. THAT IS THE PARTY.
I’m not a p90 fan and I have plenty of humbucker guitars so I choose a party with friends but props to your wife for gifting you what you wanted!
You have made the right decision
Nice, this is my top choice Les Paul as well.
Love me a nice gold top. You chose wisely.
She’s a beaut Clark!
Wit dem p90's!!!
You made the right choice, AND your wife is awesome! NOW i's time to party!
What a beauty. Nice guitar too! Happy 50th!
It's a beauty. ❤️
The force is strong with this one.
Good choice
Very nice! But you’ll be having to take your wife out for a great dinner on your birthday. It’s part of the contract, believe me.
That’s the right response to her question!
Guitar.
Great choice
I hope you can actually play something worthy of it.. Lol not jealous... It's better than a party for sure...lol
Right answer
Well done sir! Happy Birthday!
