This Made-to-Measure Les Paul is a stunning showcase of vintage accuracy and custom elegance, finished in a striking Golden Poppy Burst and aged to perfection by the Murphy Lab with their Ultra Light Aged treatment. The 2-piece figured maple top, paired with a lightweight 1-piece mahogany body, delivers rich resonance and a bold, dynamic appearance.

The solid mahogany neck features an authentic '59 Medium C-shape profile, long tenon joint, and hide glue construction for superb tone transfer and classic feel. The Indian rosewood fingerboard, adorned with cellulose nitrate trapezoid inlays, complements the vintage-spec build, while the unpotted Custombucker Alnico 3 pickups offer warm, open tone with exceptional clarity.

Period-correct appointments include an ABR-1 bridge, lightweight aluminum stop bar, Kluson tuners, and all the right plastics—from the pickguard to the control knobs and jack plate. Nickel hardware and a silkscreened Gibson headstock logo round out the old-school vibe. This custom Golden Poppy Burst beauty is a true collector's piece, blending timeless tone with a standout aesthetic.  Excellent condition.
