Drenched in gold, this Gibson Custom 1968 Les Paul Custom redefines excess in the best possible way. Built to echo the feel of a late-’60s original, it features a comfortably rounded mahogany neck, an ebony fingerboard adorned with block inlays, and the unmistakable elegance of multi-ply Custom binding. The nitrocellulose finish receives a subtle Murphy Lab Light Aging treatment, giving the guitar the presence of a seasoned stage companion rather than a museum piece. Its long neck tenon and carefully matched woods produce a rich, sustaining voice with depth and clarity, while a pair of ’68 Custom humbuckers delivers articulate bite and muscular low end inspired by vintage T-Top designs. A Bigsby B7 adds expressive movement to the instrument’s voice, and classic appointments—gold hardware, Waffleback tuners, witch hat knobs, an aluminum stop tailpiece, and mother-of-pearl inlays—complete a guitar that’s as commanding sonically as it is visually unforgettable.
