Highlighted Features:

• Gibson Custom Shop Quality - Gibson Custom Shop is the pinnacle of craftsmanship, quality, and sound excellence. Each instrument celebrates Gibson's legacy through accuracy, authenticity, and attention to detail.

• Murphy Lab Heavy Aging - The Murphy Lab Heavy Aging on these acoustic reissues simulates decades of play wear and gives them the character, vibe, and feel of a long-cherished vintage instrument.

• Thermally Aged Tops - The thermally aged spruce tops of these models is supported by Gibson’s hand-scalloped X bracing. The combination of the aged tops and hand-scalloped X bracing helps give them the tone of a long-cherished heirloom.

• Compound Dovetail Neck-to-body Joint - All of these models feature Gibson’s compound dovetail neck-to-body joint for the ultimate tone transfer between the body and neck. It is fitted using traditional hot hide glue, so if neck repairs are ever needed far into the future, they are easier for a qualified luthier to perform than on necks fitted using other adhesives.
