As part of Gibson's storied tenure with the NAMM Show, the Gibson Custom Shop proudly presents the Gibson Custom Shop 1955 NAMM Show Commemorative Edition Les Paul. The National Association of Music Merchants (NAMM) is a non-profit global trade association dedicated to the music products industry. Annually, their trade shows are marked as major events in the industry with industry giants and up-and-comer brands alike congregating in celebration of music products. This special release from Gibson Custom Shop pays tribute to a limited series of Les Pauls produced for the 1955 NAMM Show in Chicago, Illinois. Those originals, now highly coveted by collectors with only a few of them with actual whereabouts known today, earn a revitalized status through this Gibson Custom Shop series.

Today's Gibson Custom Shop 1955 NAMM Show Commemorative Edition Les Paul is made up of a series of guitars with seventy pieces produced in each of the five colors. A truly limited run, these guitars are produced to commemorate Gibson's original Les Paul series from the NAMM Show from seventy years prior. Classic '50s-style custom metallic nitrocellulose lacquer car finishes replicated by Gibson for the first time ever and period-accurate specifications denote these models as authentic revivals of Gibson's original limited NAMM series.

Gibson Custom's 1955 NAMM Les Paul starts out with a one-piece lightweight mahogany body with a two-piece plain maple cap. This top, fitted with hide glue, is a quality specification to deliver on tonal brightness and concision. One-ply cream royalite binding wraps the top for a fine accent. From here, the one-piece solid mahogany neck comes in designed with a long neck tenon and a Chunky D-Shape profile. Playing with a smooth and classic feel in hand, this neck fits perfectly alongside an Indian rosewood fingerboard with twenty-two historic narrow/tall frets. The fingerboard's twelve-inch radius and aged cellulose nitrate trapezoid inlays tie it all together for an impressive look and feel.

For this Custom's voice, Gibson loaded in two cream-covered Custom Shop P-90 Soapbar single-coils. These P-90s are handwired with 500k CTS potentiometers and paper-in-oil capacitors, resulting in rich tonality and a colorful spectrum of sounds to mix through. Authenticity to the original 1955 series becomes apparent with a series of smaller considerations. For one, the headstock features period-correct "low logo" holly headstock veneer. Alongside, the headstock is paired with a nylon nut, a set of Kluson single-line tuners and features a historical 1955 limited run serial number. The guitar is treated to a Murphy Lab Light Aged finish treatment which simulates light play wear along with lightly aged hardware. A No-Wire ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge and Stop Bar tailpiece lands on this model, replicating their first appearance from Gibson's original 1955 NAMM Les Pauls. Finally, this special release travels with a brown/pink Lifton five-latch case.

In commemoration of the NAMM Show and all it does for the musical instrument industry, Gibson Custom Shop tips its hat with a truly special series. See you at NAMM!

Disgusted!
Size: Small, Color: Black
I’m disgusted! I ordered this for my boyfriend to wear to prom. I ordered him a small and the jacket and the vest were not smalls, they look like they were a large. All three pieces had dog or cat hair on them and the jacket had dirt stains on the inside. They were all used! And some of the stitching was coming out! I’m so glad I received it the same day I bought it, because if received it closer to prom I would have been so screwed!!! Do not buy this or buy from this brand! Terrible product!!

Dress to Impress: Sharp, Tailored Fit, Quality Material, and Sizing Tips
Size: X-Small, Color: Navy Blue, Size: X-Small, Color: Navy Blue
This review is for the LUPURTY Men's Suits Slim Fit, 3 Piece Suits for Men, 2 Buttons Solid Jacket Vest Pants, Tuxedo Set (XS navy blue and black sets). I bought the XS knowing my son's measurements were actually below the size guide for that size, but I'm glad I did because it still worked out. The suit was a bit big—especially in the pants, which were quite long, and slightly roomy in the shoulders and arms—but it still looked sharp and well put-together. The overall fit has a clean, tailored appearance despite the extra room. The material feels high-quality and the color is true to what’s shown online. I do wish the black suit came with a black or gray tie instead of blue, which didn’t quite match. The suit in the photos is the navy blue set that my son wore to his 8th grade graduation, which matched their school colors perfectly. I also included my son’s measurements to help others with sizing: Weight 114 lbs Height 5'3" Chest 30.5" Waist 29" Hip 35" Sleeve length 21.5" Shoulder 17" Inseam 29" Back length 18.5"

Sharp and Expensive Quality Tuxedo for special events!!
Size: Small, Color: Black
I researched for several tuxedos for my son's prom, we chose this one, and I'm very glad that we did! The fit is nice, the durability is great. Very classy looking! The quality is really surprising for this price, it looks like a $200 dollar suit. My son is very picky and was very pleased with this tuxedo. The seams are very good and all the buttons are correct. We did receive the tie and everything that was supposed to be with it as I know reviews were saying they didn't get certain things but we did. I really like the adjustable waste because my son is very slim, but tall and has a long torso. This Tuxedo allowed him to be super excited that we have everything we need for his first prom! True to color as we purchased the black and it is sharp!

Impressive suit for the price
Size: X-Large, Color: Navy Blue
Order suit in my normal size (44R) and it fit perfectly. I’m 6’1” and the pant length set at the correct level. Quality fabric and stitching is well finished. Pants are comfortable at the waist with enough flex to be forgiving. Very good deal for the price…suit, vest and tie.

Great for tall, slender teenager!
Size: Small, Color: Light Grey, Size: Small, Color: Light Grey
Finding a suit for a tall, slender teenage boy is about as hard as climbing Mt. Everest. Until I found this one!! I was so pleasantly surprised that this suit fit my 15 year old son like a glove. He is 5'10'' and 140 lbs so he needs pants with the proper length and smaller waist. While the waist was slightly big, he didn't need a belt and the pants fell perfectly with a pair of Nike tennis shoes. I ordered a size small and would say the pants were a 32x32 but waist was probably more like a 31. Jacket and vest were a great fit as well. High quality and easy to steam to get the shipping wrinkles out.
