2023 Gibson Custom Shop 1957 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue Murphy Lab Ultra Heavy Aged Double Gold

A 2023 Gibson Custom Shop 1957 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue Murphy Lab Ultra Heavy Aged in Double Gold, this meticulously crafted recreation captures the look, feel, and tone of a well-played original Golden Era Les Paul. Built with a lightweight one-piece mahogany body and a hide glue-fitted figured maple top, it delivers exceptional resonance, sustain, and vintage-correct response. The pair of unpotted Custombucker Alnico 3 pickups provide rich harmonic detail, woody mids, and articulate clarity with authentic PAF character. Finished in Murphy Lab Ultra Heavy Aged nitrocellulose lacquer, this Goldtop features extensive aging work that recreates decades of wear, checking, and patina with remarkable realism.
