A meticulously aged icon of rock and roll history.
The Gibson Murphy Lab ’59 Les Paul Standard is the most authentically aged and historically accurate Les Paul available today. Built in a special division of the Custom Shop, it features a reverse-engineered lacquer formula, hand-rubbed finish and hardware that appears worn from decades of use. As a Gibson Master Artisan, Tom Murphy has created and cloned classic instruments for Clapton, Page, Slash and others. His techniques culminate in a guitar that will be the pinnacle of your collection. It comes complete with a hardshell case and Murphy's hand-signed initials in the neck pocket.
Two years ago, the Guitar Center Platinum team commissioned three sets (12 each) of Gibson Custom Tom Murphy aged ‘59 Les Pauls. The Gibson Custom Shop collaborated with Master Luthier Tom Murphy to create these replicas of the hallowed ’59 Les Paul that are virtually indistinguishable from the originals. These guitars are among the most-coveted, vintage-accurate and collectable new instruments in the electric guitar industry. The normal waiting list for a Murphy Aged Gibson Custom Les Pauls ranges from 24 to 36 months. So get yours now, while we have them in our inventory.
The Tom Murphy 1959 Les Paul Standard electric guitar comes in three distinct finishes, including Aged Cherry Burst, Lemon Drop and Factory Burst, all finished and aged by Tom Murphy, upgraded with aged plastic and hardware.
