The 2024 Gibson 1958 Standard Murphy Lab Ultra Light Aged Bourbon Burst is a testament to the unparalleled craftsmanship of the Gibson Custom Shop and the renowned Murphy Lab. This guitar exudes a timeless vibe, capturing the essence of a vintage instrument with its Ultra Light Aged finish that mimics decades of gentle play wear. Weighing in at 8 lbs 12 oz, the Bourbon Burst finish enhances the guitar's classic aesthetic, while the unique character of its plain maple top offers visual intrigue. Each piece is a celebration of Gibson's legacy, reflecting the historical accuracy and attention to detail that define the Custom Shop's creations.
Designed to echo the iconic '58 Les Paul™ Standard, this reissue incorporates several historically accurate specifications. The narrow frets allow more of the fingerboard wood to contribute to the tonal profile, while the round, chunky neck profile provides a substantial feel with excellent leverage for bending. The lightly aged hardware complements the overall vintage appeal, offering a tactile experience reminiscent of a genuine Golden Era instrument. This exquisite guitar not only delivers on looks but also on sound and playability, making it a standout choice for collectors and performers alike. It comes complete with all case candy, a certificate of authenticity (COA), and its original hard shell case (OHSC).
