2021 Gibson Custom Shop / Murphy Lab 1959 Les Paul Standard Ultra Light Aged Sunrise Tea Burst 
Murphy Lab Collection brings together many years of aging technology.
The new model is based on the 1959 Les Paul, which is one of the most popular Les Paul models, and uses a combination of light weather checking and light aged hardware to recreate the condition of the model that was carefully stored in the case. 
The flame is wonderful, and the matching sunrise tea burst finish is also great. It uses rolled binding, which gives it a good neck feel, and the playability is appealing without making you feel the thickness of the neck.
