What we say:

At A Glance:

The Gibson Custom Shop 1957 Les Paul Goldtop is an authentic recreation of a classic. From the woods to the elegant gold finish, this guitar is ready to not only rock, but look incredible on stage, or at home. As it's made in the Gibson Custom Shop you're not only getting a magnificently crafted instrument, you're getting a work of art.

Features We Love:

Gibson Custom Shop Quality

Before ever reaching the final stages of finishing, the guitars are built in the Gibson Custom Shop. Some of the best luthiers in the business build each Murphy Lab guitar with as much passion and attention to detail as any other. There's no better place for the Murphy Lab to start than with an exceptionally built instrument from the Custom Shop.

Custombucker Pickups

The Gibson Custombucker pickups instantly give you that recognisable Gibson sound made famous on countless records. A recreation of Gibson's PAF pickups from the 1950's, they aren't available anywhere else except in a Gibson Custom Shop guitar!

Vintage Original Spec

The Gibson Custom Shop VOS or "Vintage Original Spec" is the path to true vintage authenticity. For decades the Gibson Custom Shop has studied the legendary original models, extracting the essence of what makes those guitars so great. With the VOS line, they use this knowledge to create truly stunning recreations of some of Gibson's most vaunted guitars.

Who Is It For?

The player after a top of the line reissue of an iconic guitar. This Custom Shop guitar performs exactly as you'd expect with fantastic playability and iconic tone.

Highlights:

  • Custom Shop recreation of an iconic Les Paul. You'll get the looks and the sound of the 50's without the price tag of a vintage instrument.
  • Humbuckers are great for all your rock and metal needs, and with their separate tone and volume controls, you have an array of tones at your disposal.
