Gibson Custom

The Gibson Custom Shop represents the absolute pinnacle of Gibson's heritage, craftsmanship, and sonic excellence. It is here that master luthiers meticulously recreate the most sought-after vintage instruments in history, often referred to as Historic Reissues. Key to this line are the celebrated 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue (R9) and the 1958 Les Paul (R8), crafted with forensic accuracy to their golden-era specifications. The Custom Shop also handles the prestigious Murphy Lab Collection, applying highly convincing light, ultra-light, and heavy ageing techniques to simulate decades of genuine wear. Beyond the single-cuts, such as the the Les Paul Custom (the "Black Beauty"), the Custom Shop produces flawless versions of the ES-335 Reissue, and rare instruments like the Flying V Custom. For discerning players and collectors seeking historical accuracy, peerless build quality, and the definitive vintage feel, a Gibson Custom Shop guitar is the ultimate investment in tone.
