Gibson Custom '59 Les Paul Standard Slow Iced Tea Fade Murphy Lab Light Aged

Stunning Light Aged Murphy Lab ’59 Les Paul Standard in breathtaking Slow Iced Tea Fade! With hand-selected top for Dijkmans Guitars!

This Gibson Custom Shop Made to Measure ’59 Les Paul Standard is a tribute to one of the most iconic guitars ever built. Specially put together for Dijkmans Guitars, this instrument combines the soul of a vintage Burst with the highest level of modern Custom Shop craftsmanship.

The guitar is finished in the exclusive Slow Iced Tea Fade, a color that evokes the warm, subtly faded hues of a beautifully aged original ’59 Les Paul. The finish shows a natural transition of rich amber and tea tones, creating an authentic, lived-in look with great visual depth.

The Light Aging by the Murphy Lab gives this guitar a convincingly played-in character. Fine lacquer checking, light signs of wear, and subtle aging of the hardware create a realistic vintage look & feel, without the instrument losing its freshness. The result is a perfect balance between played and cherished — as if the guitar has been lovingly played and maintained for years.

What makes this particular version extra special is the hand-selected maple top, chosen by Dijkmans Guitars in close collaboration with Tom Fowle of the Murphy Lab. The top displays a lively, elegant flame with a distinct vintage character: dynamic, deep, and perfectly in harmony with the Slow Iced Tea Fade finish.

Tonally, this ’59 Standard offers everything you would expect from a top-class Custom Shop instrument: open, resonant, and extremely responsive. The tones are rich and layered, with a powerful midrange, sparkling highs, and a deep, musical sustain that sings effortlessly.

This is not a replica, but a carefully curated interpretation of a legendary instrument. A Made to Measure ’59 Les Paul Standard for the purist, the collector, and the player looking for the ultimate Burst experience. Exclusively assembled for Dijkmans Guitars.
