Orville by Gibson Les Paul Standard Gold Top
Orville by Gibson Les Paul Standard Gold Top
Officially licensed by Gibson USA Orville by Gibson Japanese guitars are arguably better than their USA counterparts from the same period. We have tried Epiphones, we have tried Orvilles, Orville by Gibson is in a league of it’s own. In fact, better than some of the more affordable Gibson’s that you can find today.
