The '60 Les Paul from page 151: a second jewel from Beauty of the Burst, accurately recreated
The Gibson M2M '60 Les Paul Standard BOTB pg. 151 Murphy Lab Light Aged is, like its sibling from page 138, a tribute to Yasuhiko Iwanade's "Beauty of the Burst". This particular example is an accurate recreation of the guitar on page 151 of that legendary book, one of the most beautiful documentations of the original 1958-1960 Les Paul Standards. Every detail, from the top figuring to the finish, is matched to the original.
M2M (Made to Measure) guitars are built to order with specifications that fall outside the standard Custom Shop offerings. The Murphy Lab Light Aged treatment gives the guitar just enough patina to feel authentic: subtle checking in the nitrocellulose lacquer, lightly aged nickel hardware, and a playing feel reminiscent of a well-played vintage instrument. The tone of a '60 Les Paul is slightly slimmer and brighter than the '59, thanks to the thinner neck profile of that year.
For the enthusiast who wants to play the exact guitar from page 151. Delivered with hardshell case and Certificate of Authenticity.
BOTB page 151, Murphy Lab, Made to Measure. Two pages, two unique guitars.
