Gibson Custom Murphy Lab '57 Les Paul All-Gold Light Aged With Bigsby Electric Guitar Gold Top
Description
The Gibson Custom 57 Les Paul All Gold Light Aged With Bigsby gives you an iconic solid body electric guitar from the 1950s updated with a Bigsby vibrato tailpiece. Gibson Custom has recreated a vintage Les Paul Goldtop down to the finest details, from the mahogany body and maple top to the aged antique gold finish. Dual Custombuckers produce the warm, articulate tones the Les Paul is known for. The mahogany neck has a rounded profile for endless comfort and sustain.
An Authentic Gold Finish Lightly Aged to Perfection
The Gibson Custom 57 Les Paul All Gold Light Aged With Bigsby features an antique gold finish that Gibson has expertly aged to mimic decades of natural wear and tear. The result is a guitar that looks like a well-loved vintage original. The aged finish gives this Les Paul a sense of history and character right out of the case.
A Mahogany Body with a Two-Piece Maple Top for Full, Resonant Sound
The Gibson Custom 57 Les Paul All Gold Light Aged With Bigsby features a mahogany body with a two-piece maple top, a recipe Gibson has used for decades to produce some of the most resonant electric guitars ever made. The mahogany body provides richness and depth, while the maple top adds clarity and articulation.
A Mahogany Neck for Stability and Sustain
The Gibson Custom 57 Les Paul All Gold Light Aged With Bigsby has a mahogany neck that provides exceptional stability under the tension of the strings. Its rounded profile feels comfortable for any playing style. The mahogany neck also enhances sustain by allowing vibrations to resonate.
Dual Humbuckers Produce a Versatile Range of Tones
This Les Paul is equipped with dual Custombuckers that provide the warm, articulate tones the Les Paul is renowned for. The Custombuckers excel at everything from jazz and blues to classic rock. Their wide frequency range means you can dial in tones from bright and crisp to deep and throaty.
Bigsby B7 Vibrato Tailpiece Adds Shimmering Pitch Effects
While vintage Les Pauls were equipped with a stop tailpiece, the Gibson Custom 57 Les Paul All Gold Light Aged With Bigsby features a Bigsby B7 vibrato tailpiece. The B7 allows you to subtly bend notes and add a shimmering vibrato effect. The B7 retains the tone of a stop tailpiece when inactive but provides more tonal options when you want them.
