From One Legend to Another
The Gibson Custom Select 1957 Les Paul™ Reissue, Murphy Lab Ultra Light Aged, British Racing Green combines two icons into one guitar. Designed and crafted by the artisans at Gibson Custom, Gibson Custom Select guitars are made by hand in small batches. This collection of guitars has striking finishes, unique hardware, and other exciting features that make these guitars special. This Gibson Custom Select 1957 Les Paul comes with a British Racing Green-finished top along with the standard appointments you would find on a vintage 1957 Les Paul. British Racing Green is deeply associated with sports cars, but the color has become famous in popular culture since the 1950s.
The 1957 Les Paul Reissue is a recreation of the Les Paul that introduced the world to a solid body guitar with humbucking pickups. To put it simply, the history of music would not be the same if it were not for the ’57 Les Paul. The evolution from P-90 pickups to humbuckers™ brought the end to 60-cycle hum. The ‘57 Les Paul became the blueprint for electric guitars with its huge sustain, paired with a set of humbuckers, that cemented its place in music history. The artisans at Gibson Custom make sure every detail in this recreation is just like original examples that have come through the Custom Shop. From historically accurate neck profiles to the fine details of the Patent Applied For-cloned pickups, these guitars from Gibson Custom are the pinnacle of craftsmanship in electric guitars.
With a rich history in race cars and sports cars, British Racing Green is an iconic color across the world. The color first came into play during the 1903 Gordon Bennett Cup, where the color, then-named Shamrock Green, was used on British racing cars. The shade of green quickly became the United Kingdom’s represented color when it came to motorsports competition. British sports car companies began adopting the color with production models like Steve McQueen’s famous 1956 Jaguar XKSS D-Type. While 1957 Les Paul Standards are usually presented in their signature Goldtop finish, this Custom Select model shifts into another gear with a British Racing Green top. The natural finish checking from the Murphy Lab Ultra Light aging process makes this instrument feel like it has been around for decades. Every detail on the hardware, even down to the screws, is lightly aged.
This Gibson Custom Select 1957 Les Paul combines two icons into one guitar. With histories rooted in the sound of rock music and the shade of green that is synonymous with British cars, this extraordinary 1957 Les Paul Reissue is a unique mixture of history. This ’57 Les Paul includes a reissue Lifton™ hardshell case with a brown exterior and pink interior as well as a Gibson Custom Certificate of Authenticity.
