The sparkle top deluxe is the rarest and most sought after Gibson Les Paul Deluxe of the 70s. There were approximately 125 Rocket Red Sparkle Tops made in 1975 (1 Left Handed) and 231 Blue sparkles from 1975-1977. There were also a very few made in Gold and Green Sparkle finish.

These are historically significant guitars because custom color finishes didn't really exist with Les Pauls when these were made.

These are incredibly tough to find in all original, clean shape without a headstock repair. Even repaired examples will fetch high values! However, the sky is the limit when a clean, unrepared one shows up for sale to the public.

Guitar Center's Vice President Michale Doyle recently worked with Gibson to reissue these guitars since a Rocket Red Deluxe was his first proper les paul.

A sparkle top deluxe is a MUST HAVE for any serious Les Paul Collection
