Gibson Custom Shop Limited Run 1964 ES Trini Lopez Argentine Grey Murphy Lab Light Aged (Serial #160702)

The Gibson Custom Shop represents the pinnacle of the brand’s craftsmanship, where history, artistry, and innovation converge to create instruments unlike any other. Each guitar is hand-built with uncompromising attention to detail, using time-honored techniques and the finest tonewoods to capture the spirit of Gibson’s golden era. Whether it’s a faithful Historic Reissue, a bold Modern Collection piece, or a one-of-a-kind Masterbuilt creation, every Custom Shop guitar offers that unmistakable Gibson feel and sound—rich, resonant, and endlessly expressive. At Chicago Music Exchange, we’re proud to offer one of the world’s premier selections of Gibson Custom Shop guitars, expertly curated for players and collectors who demand nothing less than perfection.

Following decades of research for the Gibson Custom, Art, and Historic Division founded in 1993, Gibson Custom Shop established the Murphy Labs Division in 2017 to take Tom Murphy’s proprietary techniques to the next level.

Sporting a scientifically reverse-engineered nitrocellulose lacquer identical what was used on Gibson guitars of the ‘50s and ‘60s, this Custom Shop instrument has been meticulously aged by hand at Murphy Labs—with all the wear-and-tear of a well-played original, including an extra-rolled fingerboard binding for a broken-in feel and true-to-life look.
