Here at Midwood Guitar Studio, we’re thrilled to offer this Gibson Custom Shop Murphy Lab 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue—a jaw-dropping recreation of the most iconic electric guitar ever made. At just 8lbs 9oz, it’s exceptionally light for a Les Paul, with resonance and sustain that match its legendary looks. Every detail has been obsessively crafted, from hide-glue construction and historically accurate plastics to the Murphy Lab’s Ultra-Light Aged Sunrise Teaburst finish, which gives it the vibe and feel of a gently played original Burst. Loaded with a pair of Custombuckers, it delivers that unmistakable Les Paul growl—clear, punchy, and endlessly expressive. Simply put, this is the pinnacle of Gibson craftsmanship.
