Gibson Custom Shop 1959 Les Paul Golden Poppy Burst Murphy Lab Heavy Aged

1959 Les Paul Golden Poppy Burst Murphy Lab Heavy Aged Item Description

All of the specs that make a Historic Les Paul special, plus the added looks and feel of a Heavy Aged finish: this is the Gibson Custom Shop 1959 Les Paul Standard in a Golden Poppy Burst finish. From laser-scanned dimensions to chemically-recreated plastics to color-matched shades of sunburst, every element has been rendered in unbelievable detail. It represents the culmination of decades of work by Custom Shop's expert team -- a tireless quest to bring accuracy and authenticity to the hands of fans. It’s the definition of cool, and it's the best representation of the 1959 Les Paul Standard since the Gibson Custom Shop began making Historic Reissues over twenty-five years ago. It has a beautiful figured maple top; each is unique and full of character. The heavy aging treatment adds patina to the hardware, intricate lines of finish checking along with tasteful areas of pickwear and aging, along with removal of aniline cherry on select areas of the mahogany body to recreate authentic wear patterns. Each one is unique to itself, and unlike any other Les Paul you'll find!

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