Personal Thoughts:
This 2025 M2M 50th Anniversary '57 Les Paul Custom is a showpiece that bridges collectibility with performance. The Murphy Lab Ultra Light Aging gives the Double Gold finish a subtle, vintage-correct patina with gentle lacquer checking—no over-the-top relicing, just tasteful aging that adds character without compromise.
The overwound bridge Classic ’57 offers growl and power with just the right push, while the underwound “WOW” neck pickup delivers smooth clarity and warmth—making this a dream for both lead players and tone chasers. Combined with the 1-piece mahogany body, ebony board, and ABR-1 bridge, this guitar delivers resonance, sustain, and old-school class in spades.
A perfect blend of historic accuracy and modern refinement.
Condition Report:
Mint condition, imported new from our overseas supplier. The light wear is all Murphy Lab factory-applied—with gentle aging, checking, and faded gold hardware. Frets are flawless, the neck is smooth, and the electronics are fully tested.
Includes the original Gibson Custom Shop hardshell case, certificate of authenticity, and all included case candy. An incredibly rare, anniversary-spec Les Paul Custom that’s as refined as it is collectible.
