The Gibson Les Paul Standard guitar began production in 1958 at a time in
American culture when custom color choices from major manufacturers in
the auto industry were becoming very fashionable.
This Oxford Gray color shows one of those car colors, never before seen on
a Gibson Custom instrument, resulting in a bold and beautiful vision from Gibson.

Our vintage-inspired colors
Nitorlack colors are based on the original Fender and Gibson colors.
The creation of these colors is preceded by a great work and exhaustive
study by our laboratory and technical department. Thanks to this, we have
been able to recreate with fidelity the tones of the Fender and Gibson guitars
from the 50’s and 60’s.
During those years up to the present day it should be noted that the colors
of vintage guitars have changed a lot over the years due to the aging of the
nitrocellulose lacquer and modifications in the colors of the brands.
Therefore, two guitars finished in 1960 with fender colors may be totally
different from each other or from a more current guitar.
