What we say:
At A Glance:
This Gibson Custom Shop Made 2 Measure 1968 Les Paul Heavy Antique White, is as authentic as it gets. Crafted under the supervision of master artisan Tom Murphy, who has a long history with Gibson and a star-studded history of creating vintage-looking instruments. Each instrument is crafted in the Gibson Custom Shop by expert luthiers, then the Murphy Lab takes over. With Tom Murphy's innovative and unique aging process what you end up with is a guitar that looks accurately aged, but also feels and plays like the guitar you've been playing your whole life.
The Gibson Made 2 Measure scheme has given us the opportunity to hand-select the specs on these wonderful guitars, resulting in a collection of some of the most aesthetic Les Paul guitars you'll ever witness.
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.
Murphy Lab Finish
Each Murphy Lab guitar is painstakingly aged to look and feel like a guitar you've owned for years. The aging process under Tom Murphy's guidance has taken a leap forward, with the new nitrocellulose lacquer recreating the look of a guitar that has spent years in and out of its case with its wood moving to create that authentic checking. The Murphy Lab doesn't stop at giving you an authentically aged finish though, they know exactly how a vintage guitar should feel too. When you pick up this Les Paul you'll notice the rolled fingerboard edges, the rolled binding on the guitar and it'll feel like a guitar you've played your entire life.
Gibson Made 2 Measure
The Gibson Made 2 Measure scheme was introduced to allow both individuals and dealers to customise their Custom Shop guitars with unique specs. We've taken full advantage of this amazing opportunity with these guitars, and we've hand-selected the specs on these guitars. Our experience and keen eye have guided us in choosing specs that create wonderfully aesthetic guitars. If you're after a stunning top or classy looking Custom like this, Gibson Made 2 Measure is where you'll find it.
Who Is It For?
For the Les Paul enthusiast, you really can't get much better than this. A Gibson Custom Shop guitar is an outstanding marker of quality on its own, and with our hand-selected Made 2 Measure specs you'll be in possession of a truly cream-of-the-crop instrument.
