About this listing
Carrying on Orville Gibson’s historic pursuit of sonic excellence and aesthetic perfection, the Gibson Custom Shop combines traditional instrument-making techniques, innovative methods, and meticulous attention to detail to craft instruments worthy of its banner-era slogan, “Only a Gibson is Good Enough.”This instrument exclusively features woods hand-picked by CME’s expert guitar-buying team at the Gibson Custom Shop in Nashville, paired with one of our favorite finishes, plus a thoughtful combination of preferred fingerboards, neck profiles, pickups, and hardware, to make this customized Gibson guitar.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.General: Brand Name: Gibson Case Type: Hardshell Case Hardware Color: Nickel Made in: Made in the USA Product Color: Double Gold Relic or Aging Level: VOS (Vintage Original Spec) Serial Number: 752072 Series: Gibson Custom Shop Historic Weight: 8lbs 12ozBody: Body Binding: 1-Ply Royalite Body Finish: Nitrocellulose VOS (Vintage Patina) Body Material: One-Piece Lightweight Mahogany Body Shape: Les Paul Top Material: 2-Piece Plain MapleNeck: Fingerboard Inlay: Aged Celluloid Trapezoid Fingerboard Material: Indian Rosewood Headstock Inlay or Decal: Gibson Logo w/Les Paul Scrip Signature Headstock Veneer: Holly Neck Binding: .40 Cream Neck Finish: Nitrocellulose VOS (Vintage Patina) Neck Joint: Long Tenon, Hide Glue Fit Neck Material: Solid Mahogany Neck Shape: 59 Carmelita Number of Frets: 21 Frets Nut Material: Nylon Nut Width: 1.687" (42.85mm) Side Marker Inlay: Tortoise Side Dots Truss Rod: Authentic 1950s No-TubeElectronics: Bridge Pickup: CME Custom "S" Bucker Controls and Switching: 3-Way Switchcraft; 2 Volume & 2 Tone Electronics Notes: CTS 500K Audio Taper Potentiometers, Paper-in-Oil Capacitors Neck Pickup: CME Custom "S" BuckerHardware: Bridge: No-Wire ABR-1 Fret Wire: Historic Gibson Narrow/Tall Hardware Notes: CME Medallion Knobs: Butyrate Gold Top Hats Pickguard: Laminated Cellulose Acetate Butyrate Saddle Material: Nickel-Plated Brass Switch Cap: Amber Catalin Tailpiece: Lightweight Aluminum Stop Bar Truss Rod Cover: Authentic Stepped 2-Ply Tuning Machines: Kluson Single Line, Single Ring
