Description: Clearing out my collection. I never play this gorgeous R9 Les Paul and it's time to find it a new home. It has probably less than 2 hours play time since new. As you know, these are over $9K new. Here is your chance to own a like new one at a fraction of the price. It needs a new home so make and offer. I ship fast and carefully. Buy with confidence. Check my feedback. Please ask any questions PRIOR to purchasing. Thank you! GIBSON CUSTOM - 1959 LES PAUL STANDARD REISSUE ELECTRIC GUITAR - MURPHY LAB HEAVY AGED SLOW ICED TEA FADE The Gibson Custom Murphy Lab 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue is a startling recreation of the original holy grail guitar. Built in the Custom Shop with period-correct appointments and superior attention to detail, its journey continued in the Murphy Lab. Utilizing aging techniques created by Master Artisan Tom Murphy, this reissue emerged looking like a vintage Gibson with five decades of heavy play wear. Lacquer checking and hardware with a muted patina complete the transformation. Loaded with a set of CustomBuckers, the Heavy-aged ’59 Standard sets a new one for historical authenticity, and will become the centerpiece of your collection. It is available now at Guitar Center. Main FeaturesLightweight mahogany body with 2-piece figured maple topMahogany neck with 1959 medium C-profile, Indian rosewood fretboardDual Gibson CustomBucker pickups, 3-way switchTune-o-matic bridge, stopbar tailpiece, Kluson tunersMurphy Lab Heavy Aged Finish Mahogany and Maple ConstructionThere's no reason to mess with perfection—this Murphy Lab Les Paul has a lightweight mahogany body and figured maple top, just like in 1959. Marrying two unique woods proves that the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. Solid Neck SpecsThe mahogany neck has an authentic '59 medium C-shape. The fretboard is rosewood; extra-rolled binding mimics the feel of a broken-in Gibson. It also disrupts the evenness of the yellowed lacquer with a wear pattern that matches a naturally aged instrument. Powerful PickupsNailing the tone of a PAF pickup on a late ’50s Les Paul has sent some on the biggest fool's quest since Coronado searched for the cities of gold. Fortunately, the Custom Shop is stocked with the type of folk that rise to the occasion. The resulting CustomBuckers sound so authentically 1959, you'll swear Eisenhower is still president. A hand-wired harness with paper-in-oil capacitors and 500K CTS pots supplies sonic variations; the rest is up to you. Historic HardwareThe Murphy Lab LP Standard has a stopbar tailpiece, tune-o-matic bridge and Kluson tuners that match original ’59 specs. All hardware has an aged patina. Heavy Aged FinishThe Murphy Lab puts this guitar through a Heavy Aging process, simulating a half century of life on the road. That means plenty of buckle rash, plus light arm, neck and peghead wear. The lacquer checking patterns stick out prominently (and beautifully); the hardware is heavily-aged to match. The Gibson Custom Murphy Lab 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue comes with a certificate of authenticity and a brown and pink aged reissue 5-latch hardshell case.
