Full Description

An Iconic Trini Lopez Reissue

The Gibson Custom 1964 Trini Lopez Standard Reissue VOS is a meticulous recreation of one of Gibson’s most distinctive semi-hollowbody guitars. Inspired by the original model designed in collaboration with Trini Lopez, this reissue remains faithful to the unique aesthetic that made it a legend. The striking diamond soundholes and single diamond trapeze tailpiece give it a bold look, setting it apart from traditional semi-hollow designs. With every curve, inlay, and contour carefully replicated, this guitar offers an authentic vintage experience that captures the essence of the 1964 original.

Exceptional Tone With Custombuckers

Loaded with a pair of unpotted Custombucker Alnico III pickups, this reissue delivers the warm, articulate tones that made the original model revered. The Custombuckers are designed to replicate the sought-after PAF sound, producing rich harmonics, clear note separation, and a touch of natural compression that responds beautifully to dynamics. From smooth jazz tones to overdriven rock power, these pickups provide the versatility and character expected from a true Gibson classic.

Premium Craftsmanship And Materials

Built using Gibson’s renowned craftsmanship, the 1964 Trini Lopez Standard Reissue VOS features a high-quality 3-ply maple/poplar/maple body with a solid maple centre block. This combination enhances resonance while controlling feedback, ensuring a balanced and articulate tone. The mahogany neck is shaped to a comfortable medium C profile, providing a smooth and effortless playing feel. The long tenon joint with hide glue construction enhances sustain and stability, making this guitar as reliable as it is inspiring to play.

Attention To Vintage Detail

Every detail of this reissue has been carefully considered to match the original ‘64 model, down to the smallest components. The Indian rosewood fingerboard features cellulose nitrate split diamond inlays, adding to the guitar’s distinctive visual appeal. The aged nitrocellulose finish, applied using Gibson’s VOS process, gives it the look and feel of a well-played vintage instrument. Nickel hardware, including Kluson single-line strip tuners and an ABR-1 bridge with nylon saddles, ensures smooth tuning stability while preserving the period-correct aesthetic.

A True Collector’s Piece

For those seeking a historically accurate recreation of a legendary model, the Gibson Custom 1964 Trini Lopez Standard Reissue VOS is an exceptional choice. It not only embodies the style and sound of the original but also honours the legacy of Trini Lopez, whose influence continues to inspire musicians worldwide. From its unique design to its vintage-voiced pickups, every aspect of this guitar pays tribute to a time when Gibson was creating some of its most innovative instruments. Complete with a black/yellow Custom Shop hardshell case and a Certificate of Authenticity, this reissue is a unique beauty that you can keep safe and secure.
