The Story

1957 Les Paul Single Pickup Made 2 Measure Ebony VOS

One of our favorite Gibson Custom Shop Music Zoo-originals is back! You might remember our run of single pickup flame tops from the mid 2000s, which is where this Made 2 Measure is inspired from! We took the 1957 Les Paul and went with an ebony finish to the back of the body as well as the top, keeping all of the other features we love about it: the cream pickguard, rounded neck profile, and top hat knobs (we went with matching black on this one). This one is a super comfortable light weight, coming in at only 7 lbs, 10 oz!

Includes: Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity, Hang Tags and Paperwork
