Unlike a standard Les Paul, the Special features no carved maple top. It relies entirely on a solid, un-chambered mahogany slab body, producing a distinctively punchy mid-range, aggressive bite, and legendary sustain. The single-cutaway design of this 1957 reissue represents the final full year of the original body style. By late 1958, Gibson transitioned the Les Paul Special to a double-cutaway design. This guitar is a precise historic replica of the flat-top, \"slab\" single-cut model. Rather than using artificial hand-distressing, the Murphy Lab ages the instrument through scientifically formulated chemical procedures to mimic the natural, microscopic weather-checking found on pristine vintage pieces. The Ultra Light Aging package represents the gentlest treatment tier. It pairs a thinly-sprayed nitrocellulose lacquer finish with light hardware patina, giving the guitar the subtle texture, character, and vibe of a 1950s instrument that has spent decades carefully preserved inside its case.\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eALL EU PURCHASES ARE DELIVERED WITH TAXES AND DUTIES PAID\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eAll purchases include EU taxes\/duties paid, i.e., nothing further is due on receipt of goods to any EU state.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWHY BUY FROM US\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eWe are one of the world's leading specialists in used and vintage gear with over 30 years of experience.
