Inspired by Trini Lopez. Recreated for today’s guitarist.
The Gibson Custom Murphy Lab 1964 Trini Lopez Standard is the type of guitar that looks great in anyones hands. Lopez was a folk musician, but players in all genres have fallen under its spellfrom the hard rock of the Foo Fighters’ Dave Grohl, Britpop with Noel Gallagher in Oasis and the hill country blues of Mississippi Fred McDowell. Recreated from original prototypes, this Murphy Lab model gets an Ultra-Light aging for an authentic vintage look. We think the 64 Trini Lopez Standard is a true standout, and its available now at Musicians Friend.
Every Legend Needs A Good Finish
Master Artisan Tom Murphy is a pioneer in the art of aging guitars. This 64 Trini Lopez features his reverse-engineered lacquer formula with unique checking patterns. The Ultra Light finish has the least amount of agingyou’ll only see minimal signs of play wear.
Historically Authentic Construction
The Trini Lopez is made of 3-ply maple/poplar/maple. The semi-hollow design adds an acoustic element to your notes, and we particularly dig the diamond-shaped soundholes. The mahogany neck accurately captures the feel of a 60s Gibson. The Indian rosewood fretboard has rolled edges, making it fit in your hand like a well-oiled baseball glove.
Dont Miss Your Chance to Get in on This Gibson
