The Gibson Custom Shop Murphy Lab ’64 Trini Lopez Reissue in Sparkling Burgundy Ultra Light Aged is a striking tribute to one of the most distinctive semi-hollow designs of the 1960s, blending iconic style with Custom Shop craftsmanship. Built on the classic ES-335 body shape, the guitar features a resonant 3-ply maple/poplar/maple construction for both the top and body, delivering the perfect balance of warmth, articulation, and airy semi-hollow character. Finished in Murphy Lab nitrocellulose lacquer, the Ultra Light Aged treatment subtly recreates decades of natural wear, allowing the Sparkling Burgundy finish to glow with vintage depth and authenticity while feeling comfortably broken-in from the first note.
The solid mahogany neck is carved into a comfortable medium C profile, providing a familiar vintage feel that suits both chord work and expressive lead playing. Its matching Murphy Lab nitro finish and period-correct tint complement the body beautifully, while the 24.75" scale length and 12" fingerboard radius ensure effortless playability across all 22 authentic medium-jumbo frets. The Indian rosewood fingerboard is adorned with distinctive split diamond cellulose nitrate inlays, paired with dot side markers for a look that is instantly recognizable and unmistakably Trini Lopez. A holly headstock veneer, Gibson silkscreen logo, single-ply Royalite binding, and a nylon nut complete the historically accurate neck details.
Tonally, this reissue delivers vintage PAF-inspired clarity and depth thanks to a pair of unpotted Custombucker Alnico 3 pickups. These pickups excel at capturing the dynamic response and harmonic richness associated with early Gibson humbuckers, offering everything from warm, woody cleans to open, expressive overdrive. The traditional control layout—two volume and two tone knobs with CTS 500k audio taper potentiometers and paper-in-oil capacitors—provides smooth, musical control, while a Switchcraft three-way selector ensures reliable performance on stage and in the studio.
The hardware further reinforces the guitar’s vintage pedigree. An ABR-1 bridge with nylon saddles pairs with the iconic single-diamond trapeze tailpiece featuring the Trini Lopez insert, enhancing sustain while contributing to the model’s unmistakable visual identity. Aged nickel hardware, Kluson single-line strip tuners with metal buttons, black top knobs, cream switch cap, wide-bevel 5-ply pickguard, and a two-ply black bell truss rod cover round out the classic appointments. The guitar ships in a premium hard case, making this Murphy Lab ’64 Trini Lopez Reissue not only a stunning collector’s piece, but also a soulful, road-ready instrument built to inspire for generations.
