The 59 Les Pauls True Historic Tom Murphy Aged were only available for a short time and it is not without reason that they enjoy an excellent reputation. They come with the characteristic “True Historic'” specs such as selected woods, hide-glue, super-thin nitro lacquer etc. In addition, the extremely rare aging by master Tom Murphy fascinates with its immense attention to detail and phenomenal authenticity. Countless hairline cracks, minor and major blemishes and a fantastic vintage patina adorn the beautiful Burst finish, which of course also includes Tom Murphy's initials below the pot knobs. The color tone and color gradient of this Paula are incredibly attractive and such a fascinating top grain is rarely seen. But this guitar also shows its uniqueness in terms of playability and sound. The 59 Medium neck profile sits wonderfully in the hand and together with a dream weight of just 3760 grams ensures the very best playability. Even played dry the guitar vibrates at its very best and is extremely resonant. It is 100% convincing at the amp. Here you get exactly the differentiated, smacking sound that you expect from a good '59 reissue. Not too thick, by no means muddy, with enough mids and belly, with silky highs and great dynamics. Here you control the degree of distortion using only the touch dynamics. We are delighted to be able to offer you this special gem including the frets in top condition.
