Mick Ralphs is a British guitar hero, a founding member of both Mott the Hoople and Bad Company, he is considered rock royalty. His monster tone and slick lead work cementing his place in rock n roll history.
A long time user of Gibson Les Paul's, 2017 see's the release of the Gibson Custom Shop Mick Ralphs 1958 Les Paul Standard #8 7049 replica. Painstakingly replicated from Ralphs original '58, the top carve, neck contours and pickup outputs were all matched to perfection to ensure the truest version of this historic guitar.
With a 2 piece Maple top on a lightweight Mahogany body, it is rich, resonant and authentically vintage. This time tested tonewood combo has been around since the very start and with results like this it is easy to see why. Gibson have used real hide glue to attach the top, a big plus for tone purists as hide glue is known to improve the resonance and sustain of the guitar. Finished in the super cool Ralphs Burst, the finish has been digitally mapped to replicate the exact checking and wear patterns.
In the traditional Mahogany with Rosewood fingerboard combination, the neck delivers everything you would expect with from the pinnacle of modern Les Paul construction. The '58 C profile is smooth, comfortable and well balanced right up the neck.
A pair of PAF styled Custom Bucker pickups provide the rich, deep tones we all know and love. Re-created to the same specs and measurements of the original PAF pickups you really can't get any closer to the real thing!
Limited to just 300 guitars worldwide, the Gibson Custom Shop Mick Ralphs 1958 Les Paul Standard #8 7049 replica is a guitar for players and collectors alike.
