Picking up a Gibson Custom 1963 Les Paul SG Custom Reissue is the next closest thing to getting your hands on a genuine original. The 1963 SG electric guitar was the last to carry the Les Paul name and the first with a Maestro Vibrola instead of a side-pull vibrato. This Gibson Custom Reissue matches that exact design along with the same look and feel as those classic models played by Keith Richards, Tony Iommi and others. It’s also undergone a very light aging process by the Murphy Lab team for added vintage appeal. A trio of Custombucker humbuckers bring the sound of the ‘60s right into your living room or studio with plenty of tone shaping controls for fine-tuning and limitless exploration. Now available at Guitar Center, this Murphy Lab Les Paul SG 1963 reissue is perfect for lovers of vintage electrics.

Lightweight, Comfortable Body

Don’t let those sharp cutaways scare you. Beveled edges around the solid mahogany body ensure you’ll have a comfortable playing experience with this Les Paul SG Custom. And as if it wasn’t hard enough to put down already, you’ll love the enhanced sustain too.

Period-Accurate Neck

This Custom Shop Les Paul SG Reissue is all about the details, including a meticulously laser-scanned and recrafted 1960 SlimTaper neck. The ebony fretboard is adorned with small mother-of-pearl block inlays, precisely patterned from the original model.

Customizable Vintage Tone

Gibson nailed the tone with its alnico III, unpotted CustomBucker pickups. The three included here are warm and sweet, with some growl when you need it. The Maestro Vibrola lets you shimmy chords and leads with plenty of ’60s soul.

Ultra Light Aged Finish

The Murphy Lab puts this guitar through its Ultra Light aging process, showing slight lacquer checking, but very little playing wear. It looks like it has spent the last five decades sitting in a case under the bed and you’re finally letting it out to breathe.

The Gibson Custom Murphy Lab 1963 Les Paul SG Custom Reissue comes with a certificate of authenticity and a brown and pink reissue 5-latch hardshell case.
