The Story

1959 Les Paul Reissue Factory Burst Murphy Lab Ultra Light Aged

All of the specs that make a Historic Les Paul special, plus the added looks and feel of an Ultra Light Aged finish: this is the Gibson Custom Shop 1959 Les Paul Standard in a Factory Burst finish. The ultra light aging treatment adds patina to the hardware and rounded fretboard edges to give the guitar the feeling of an instrument that's already been played for, and as far as aging goes just intricate and faint lines of lacquer checking but no dings or finished removal. 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
