Gibson Custom 1968 Les Paul Custom Ebony Ultra Light Aged Ebony
The Gibson Custom 1968 Les Paul Custom Reissue in Ultra Light Aged Ebony is a stunning tribute to one of the most celebrated guitars of its time. Distinguished from its 1950s predecessors, this model features a solid maple top over a mahogany back, delivering the added clarity and bite that rock guitarists demand. Paired with its dual humbuckers for focused tonal versatility and a 14-degree peghead angle for reduced string tension, this reissue embodies the design innovations that set the 1968 Les Paul Custom apart.
Elevating the experience, the Murphy Lab Ultra Light Aged finish treatment brings a tastefully worn-in aesthetic with subtle wear and lightly aged hardware. This process gives the guitar the vintage character of a well-preserved original, blending authenticity with modern reliability. Expertly crafted by the Gibson Custom Shop, the 1968 Les Paul Custom Reissue is the ultimate blend of beauty and brawn, making it an irresistible choice for players and collectors alike.
