Gibson Les Paul 59 Historic Reissue Tom Murphy Aged (2012)

The chance to get your hands on a Les Paul that has been personally worked on by Tom Murphy is rare. Since the Murphy Lab named after him was founded at the end of 2019 instruments from his hand have unfortunately become increasingly rare. We are therefore delighted to offer you this sensational 1959 Les Paul Historic Reissue, which incredible aging was carried out by Tom himself. It all starts here with the fantastic finish in the most beautiful Lemon Burst. The individual color tone is stunning and the slightly wider top grain really offers a new visual nuance from every angle. Of course Tom Murphy has once again done a great job here with the finest hairline cracks running across the paintwork, small imperfections in characteristic places and his initials underneath the knobs. An absolute feast for the eyes, Tom Murphy at his best! What's more, this Paula is also great to play. Its pleasant 59-Medium profile is excellent and comfortable to hold and the super weight of just 3860 grams, as well as the Historic specs such as selected woods, hide glue, super-thin nitrocellulose lacquer etc. do the rest to ensure the very best playing characteristics. And then of course the sound of this impressive 1959 Les Paul... This Paula sounds damn close to the original, beautifully fat, assertive, differentiated, extremely open and also shows the characteristic slight Strat touch that you know from real old ones. You won't be able to stop raving about it! We can offer you this gem, in which the killer look, finest sound, best playability and high rarity value form an ingenious symbiosis, including the frets in top condition.
