USED Gibson Custom Shop Murphy Lab Ultra Lite '57 Les Paul Goldtop - CONSIGNMENT
This mint condition, unplayed Les Paul feels and sounds fantastic, and is tastefully aged by the Murphy Lab in the Gibson Custom Shop. The aging on this guitar (deemed "ultra light" by Gibson) features gorgeous and authentic looking lacquer checking, and none of the dings, scrapes, and wear of more extreme "relic" jobs - perfect! This guitar is wonderfully resonant, feels perfectly broken-in, sounds sublime, and just begs to be played. You are getting basically a brand new Custom Shop, Murphy Lab Les Paul at an amazing price.
This Les Paul weighs a wonderfully balanced and comfortable 8.4 lbs
