The Story

1959 Les Paul Standard Heavy Aged Murphy Painted Gold Poppy Burst 2020

If you're looking for a top-tier Les Paul that's well-weathered and full of tone, this is a heavy contender! A used 2020 Gibson Custom Shop '59 Les Paul in Gold Poppy Burst that was painted by Tom Murphy and then given the Heavy Aged treatment by the Murphy Lab! The guitar has a very dark rosewood fretboard, and the flame top on this one was handpicked by the store which originally sold the guitar. All wear is original to how the Murphy Lab intended with the exception of the knobs which have been cracked through the plastic, yet still are intact and hold onto the shafts of the volume and tone pots. The original case and COA are included.

Includes: Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity
