The Magic is in the Details
The Wildwood Spec by Tom Murphy Les Paul Standards are so much more than meets the eye. We began by hand-selecting premium maple tops and Indian Rosewood fingerboards, and we carefully matched them to give each instrument its own unique visual aesthetic. Then, Tom did the rest with his wizard’s touch. He painted each and every one of these instruments completely by hand, and they also feature his ultra-accurate top carve, hand-stamped hangtags, all-hide glue construction, and reinforced metal jack plates.
The Spirit of 1960 – 60th Anniversary 1960 Les Paul Standard
Gibson’s original “Burst” Les Pauls are perhaps the most sought-after vintage guitars of all time. They are renowned for their beauty and snowflake-like uniqueness; after all, each one had a different level of flame in the maple top, and each finish received a different amount of UV light, which drastically changes the color of the finish. So, no two are alike, and that’s the beauty of the burst.
