For customers residing in Japan
A 1968 Les Paul Custom from Murphy Lab, made in 2026, has arrived!
The Murphy Lab Collection brings together years of aging expertise
Based on the highly popular 1968 Les Paul Custom, this model recreates the condition of a guitar that has been carefully stored in its case, featuring a combination of light weather checking and lightly aged hardware.

Although the Les Paul evolved into the Les Paul SG in 1961, making the SG Gibson’s main solid-body guitar of the 1960s, growing demand for the Les Paul’s return—fueled by its use by renowned guitarists—led to its reintroduction in 1968.

This instrument is a reissue model that recreates the specifications from that very first year of the revival!

While the 1950s Custom featured a mahogany body, the reissued Custom model was redesigned with a two-piece maple top and mahogany back body, similar to the 1950s Burst models.

The mahogany neck is finished in the “Authentic ’68 Medium C-Shape”—a profile that should suit many players—and, of course, features an ebony fingerboard!

It’s equipped with Kluson VX-501 tuners, commonly known as “Waffleback.”
With two “’68 Custom Humbuckers” mounted and featuring Black Beauty capacitors, this guitar is a delightful recreation down to the finest details!

2026年製、マーフィーラボの1968レスポールカスタムが入荷!
長年にわたるエイジング技術を集結させたMurphy Lab Collection
入荷したモデルは、人気の高い1968 Les Paul Customを基に、ライトなウェザーチェックと、ライトエイジド・ハードウェアの組み合わせにより、ケースの中で大切に保管されてきたコンデイションを再現しております。

レスポールが1961年にレスポールSGへと姿を変え、60年代のギブソンのメインのソリッド・ギターはSGとなりましたが、著名ギタリストの使用などで、レスポールの復活を望む声が増え、それに応える形で再生産が始まったのが1968年となります。

本器はそんな復活初年度の仕様を再現したリイシュー・モデルとなります!

50年代のカスタムはマホガニー・ボディでしたが、再生産で復活したカスタムは50年代のバーストと同様の2ピース・メイプル・トップ/マホガニー・バックのボディに使用変更がなされました。

多くの方にフィットしそうな「Authentic '68 Medium C-Shape」に仕上げられたマホガニー・ネックに指板材には勿論エボニーを使用!

ペグは通称「ワッフルバック」と呼ばれるKluson VX-501を搭載。
ピックアップには「68 Custom Humbucker」を二基マウントし、ブラック・ビューティー・キャパシタを搭載するなど、細かな点まで嬉しい再現度の一本です!
