A note from Slash:
“I’m trying to find a Les Paul that I used back in the early 90’s. I’ve since lost track of it. It was an 1989/90 Gibson Goldtop, serial #70854. I always loved that guitar and would be interested in buying it back from whomever has it…. I’ll make it worth their while”
If you have any information on the location of this guitar, please email SlashGibsonGoldtop@gmail.com

If I had it I’d give it back to you for the small price of a hug. No money asked 😀
I can’t wait to see how many fakers reply to this with either a modified Gold-Top, or (more likely) a ghost-built replica. I’ll tell ya what, Mr. Hudson: just buy my dragon Les Paul. It sounds better than that one did, anyway, and I could use the cash.
I wish I could help you but I have a question, I bought a Slash Edition Les Paul For my son Cameron for his high school graduation present and we are going to the Concert at RibFest in Naperville Ill on July 5. Is there anyway possible I could get Slash to autograph it? I can meet any time and any place to get this done. A father and sons dream!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for your time and waiting to hear from you if possible.
My email address is gdogglide@yahoo.com
Thanks again

Was the guitar stolen because I seem to see signature 4×12’s in the background.
You High-rolling motherfucker! Most of us can´t afford a Goldtop! Best regards from a everlasting fan / Jonas
I would try posting the info on here……..https://www.facebook.com/LesPaul
The more the word gets out, the better luck you’ll have. Hope you find it!
That is the guitar that I always associate with Slash from the g’n’r days. Always wanted a GT with no scratch plate.
good luck
Whoever has that beauty… Lucky MF bastard…! 🙂
I have an old Gibson goldtop. Will check #. Isn’t first 2 numbers of serial # the year though 70= 1970?
I’ll keep my eyes out mate 😉

I feel you brother.. I had #500 and #1072. Lost them in a divorce. I can relate to how you feel.
I’ll keep my eyes peeled in the southeast for ya.
You were always my guitar Idol.
I used to have a GI Joe with a top hat glued to my JCM800 stack for my good luck charm I’d hi five before going on stage… 😉
Rock on Brother!

Hi Slash, my mom took care of you while you were in the hospital about 10 years ago. She thought a great deal of you and was overjoyed to meet you. Thanks for the autographed photo. Teresa
I went to hard rock cafe atlantic city.
There’re have your gold top guitar.
Plate says from 80s.
It’s in a show case.
I can’t check serial number.
But just in case I’ll leaeve message here.
I don’t think that’s what you looking for.
Just in case…
If that’s the which you looking for let me know.
Love xoxoxox
the axe is in ny. i posted an ad on clist and almost was meritorious to own, but the guy’s neighbor gave him 6000 right after he emailed me the serial. the original owner has no clue… I was really close to getting it.
nevermind, been getting pranks of this serial.
Slash,
Don’t give up man. I had a bass, an 87 Fender Jazz Special, that I had to pawn about two years after I bought it new in 87′. I always regretted selling it. Recently, I started looking for another Guitar like it because it’s a great bass (type that Duff played even). Unbelievably, I happened across the exact same bass on Ebay, with road rash that I caused to prove it. Never felt so lucky in my life. Keep searching and you’ll find it brother!
Keep rocking,
Mark Woltz
sure dude i think i can try to find out who has it
p.s.im a big fan of u
I’ll keep an eye out for it, man. Losing gear’s the worst.
hello iam majda im fine and you:my from is morocco and my city is casa blanca ia 12old years I want to go to america because I love beauucaoup and I love selena gomez and justin bieber and rihanna
I wish I had that Goldtop. Best of luck man hope you find it!
Would love to hear the first thing slash plays on it!

Hope you find it, sucks losing/selling/smashing/trading a guitar that you liked only to find out much too late…
i´ve it, buyed at bogota Colombia 2009
Slash if u read this look up a Rocsan guitar on eBay made by my brother in a little town south jersey
Hi Slash , Saw your video of made in Stoke gig fantastic a legend a lot of famous people came from Stoke Sir Frank Whittle for one the man who invented the jet engine mega and my in laws who worked in the pot banks of Hanley long live Stoke. Suez
Slash have u got nothing better to do on a Saturday nite & check out Axl Rose on YouTube? Then laugh & make fun of him as he falls down. Where would u even be without Axl Rose? Whether u’d. Like to admit it or not if it wasn’t for him all u would be is a cut instead of Slash. That was severely in poor taste even for u! The drunk on stage telling a crowd of ppl ur balls are hanging out…. Whatever man one loss of a fan.
Will look out for this gold top LP. Must be the one from the Illusions tour. j
When you find your old friend you could give me a new friend right?
I am so sorry for asking you this but waht do you think about the ibanez guitars and also can you tell me your favorite guitar brand please
I have been browsing online greater than three hours as of late,
but I by no means discovered any interesting article like yours.
It is beautiful value enough for me. In my view, if all webmasters and bloggers made
just right content material as you probably did, the web will be much more useful than ever
before.
Great information. Lucky me I came across your website by
accident (stumbleupon). I’ve bookmarked it for later!
Hello to all, the contents present at this
site are actually amazing for people experience,
well, keep up the nice work fellows.
Kicking myself that I am not the one that has it :'(
Good information. Lucky me I discovered your blog by accident (stumbleupon).
I’ve saved it for later!

Hi Slash!!!!!!!! One of your biggest Fans…….Just courious if u ever got any leads on that guitar you’ve been lookin for.
Hi Slash, you may not remember me but I looked after you and the Gunners in 93 when you came to Australia to do your Sydney concert at eastern creek race track . Anyway I was wondering if you will be coming back to Australia again as I am dying and waiting for a heart and lungs transplant I know it may not be important to you but as I was there looking after all of you and you all thought I was a pretty cute security officer and you nicknamed me little Dolly for obvious reasons my biggest wish right now is to see you again play live as I have missed out on the other concerts due to my illness which was caused from my ex husband who bashed me with a cricket bat across my chest which I was diagnosed with pericarditis inflammation around the heart well he beat me up so bad that it tore the linings in my lungs and since April 30 2011 I have spent 3 quarters of my time in CCU and medical ward 3 cardiac and I am a massive fan and when you played the end riff of November rain to wards me as I was on stage with Axl’s bodyguard you smiled at me and said that’s for you as I told you about me losing my Dad a few months before I married and my birthday was 23 November as we are the same age so I hope to be alive for my 48th I was wondering if I you would give me one of your hats or a t shirt signed by you as that would be a lovely gift and if I survive the transplant I would like to put on the shirt or the hat and say I am alive. Slash you were so very kind to me and every time I have gone or rushed to hospital I always ask my nurses to put my earphones on after having 7 heart attacks to play your music especially the ones you have done as a solo artist or the greatest hits of guns n roses as it brings me out of my coma you have saved my life so many times by listening to you so thank you Slash for being my friend as that’s what you said to me at the 93 concert. Stay cool and keep up the great work and your book club with Myles Kennedy . Thank you Monica 🙂
sorry Slash, don’t have the guitar,but I have the hand painted Gazzarri’s parking sign about 6′ ft long if your interested.Whatever you think it’s worth.I’m in Chatsworth.I love the Apocalyptic Love Album better than G&R!!!! UN believeable talent there!! thanks!
good
