The Story

1959 Les Paul Tom Murphy Painted and Aged Murphy Burst 2017

A '59 Les Paul not only aged by the best in the biz, but painted by him too! This is a Gibson Custom Shop 1959 Les Paul Reissue which was part of a run in 2017 where they were painted and aged by the Gibson aging master. This guitar has a really beautiful burst on it with light red and orange shades that border somewhere between Iced Tea and Bourbon Burst if you ask us. There is Toms signature aging patterns throughout the body and neck, and his own touch of where players would wear their guitars in in decades of music playing. This collectible Gibson is still in excellent shape with all wear original to how Murphy crafted it. The original hardshell case, certificate of authenticity, pickguard and Gibson paperwork are all included.

Includes: Original Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity, Hang Tags, Pickguard and Extra Back Plate
