Gibson Les Paul '57 Billy Gibbons Aged and Signed

This one is signed and Murphy aged, and mint unplayed collector condition, with case and all the case candy. It only weighs in at a stunning 3.25kg, lightest we ever seen on a Les Paul.
Billy F. Gibbons doesn’t pull any stylistic or tonal punches, so you’d expect his take on the seminal Les Paul Goldtop to be a knockout—and it is. The first ground-up revision of Gibson’s stunning original solidbody electric in over 60 years is a masterpiece of style. In addition to its luscious goldtop finish, it features a unique pinstripe design created by Billy himself, which is hand-recreated one at a time by respected hotrod-pinstripe artist Rick Harris and a Gibson artist trained personally by Rick. Sonically and visually, the guitar blows the doors off the venue with a neck profile measured precisely from the Rev’s own Les Paul, ultra-light construction, custom electronics, and a pair of Seymour Duncan Pearly Gates pickups. Only 50 of them are played and hand-signed by Billy himself; each of these have the added kitsch of a Texas-shaped “buckle rash” wear pattern adorning its back.
