Product Description

Legend has it that the famous "TV Yellow" colour of the Les Paul Special was named for its vivid appearance on black and white televisions in the 1950s. That's debatable. What's not up for debate is the indelible imprint this model had on music history since its inception.

The classy looks and thick, meaty tones of the Les Paul Special have been preferred by players of all genres. And this 1957 Les Paul Special Reissue from the Gibson Custom Shop revives every single feature in spectacular detail for the ultimate vintage ownership experience — from the solid mahogany construction to the roaring P-90s.

The Murphy Lab 'Ultra Light Aged' finish treatment, paired with lightly aged hardware, simulates decades of subtle playing wear — giving it the unique character, vibe and feel of an original example from Gibson's "Golden Era".
