Murphy Lab 1960 Hummingbird Heritage Cherry Sunburst Light Aged

Murphy Lab's acoustic guitar at last!

Gibson Custom Shop / 2023 Murphy Lab 1960 Hummingbird Heritage Cherry Sunburst Light Aged

Murphy Lab is a project that began in 2021 as the culmination of Gibson reissue and aging guru Tom Murphy's experience, skill, and knowledge.

In 2023, the Gibson Custom Shop Historic Reissue Collection series will be joined by the "Murphy Lab" series, the first Gibson acoustic guitars to be given the Light Aged treatment. The "Murphy Lab" series will be the first Gibson acoustic guitars to be given a light-aged finish.

The Murphy Lab 1960 Hummingbird Heritage Cherry Sunburst Light Aged is based on the first year Hummingbird, Gibson's first square shoulder guitar, which was introduced in 1960.

First impression is "Cool...". Such a word just leaks out.

The overall color tone is calm and vintage-like.
The finish is checkered in places,
It is hard to believe that it was done by human hands.
Each and every part has also been aged and put together in a cool way.

"Let's build a vintage-like guitar with a modern Gibson."

The guitar is made with the same enthusiasm as the vintage guitars, and each specification has some differences from the vintage guitars.

The neck is medium scale with a wide nut width of 44mm.
The neck shape is thick C-shape, which gives you a good grip and enjoyable feeling that is unique to the current Hummingbird guitars.
The bracing pattern is a scalloped X-bracing, which is thicker than that of the 60's guitars.

The sound character can be played with a soft and soft taste, or it can be played with a crisp and cool sound depending on the picking nuance.

The sound rises quickly and resonates clearly, which can only be achieved with current Gibson guitars.

In terms of sound and looks, I feel that Gibson has given birth to another new guitar. This is a wonderful guitar that we can expect to see evolve in the future.
