Gibson Custom 59 Les Paul Standard BOTB 78 Murphy Lab Light Aged - Cherry Burst
This RHMC Specc'd ’59 Les Paul is built straight from the Page 78 Burst in Beauty of the Burst, with the top, color, and aging direction chosen to match that specific reference. The AAA flame maple top has that rolling, vintage Burst movement, and the Murphy Lab light aging gives it the kind of soft wear that feels played-in without looking beat. The one‑piece lightweight mahogany body keeps it lively, and the ’59 V1 neck carve with the maple spline feels exactly like a late‑fifties Gibson should.
The unpotted Alnico III Custombuckers stay warm and open, with the double‑aged white bobbins giving it the right look and the right voice. Grover kidney tuners, an ABR‑1 without the retainer wire, True Historic plastics, and the lightweight aluminum stop bar finish the period‑correct build.
