{"product_id":"10-2800005469905","title":"[SN 140368] USED Gibson Custom \/ Murphy Lab Collection 1964 ES-335 Reissue Ultra Light Aged Tea Burst 2024 [10]","description":"Murphy Lab 1964 ES-335 Ultra Light Aged Now in Stock\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nWe have received a recent Gibson Custom Shop Murphy Lab Collection 1964 ES-335 reissue.\u003cbr\u003e \nThe manufacturing date can be confirmed as 2024 based on the date (5\/6\/24) listed on the included pre-pack checklist.\u003cbr\u003e \nThe aging finish is “Ultra Light Aged,” which elegantly recreates the condition of an exceptional vintage guitar.\u003cbr\u003e \nIn addition to natural-looking paint cracks across the entire body, minor cosmetic damage such as dents and paint chips is rendered with meticulous artistry, leaving one in no doubt of the manufacturer’s genuine respect for vintage Gibson guitars.\u003cbr\u003e \nThe haze and scuffs that convey the degree of finish wear are also masterfully integrated with the aging techniques; purchasing and owning this particular instrument may be the best way to truly experience the artistic craftsmanship of the Murphy Lab Collection firsthand.\u003cbr\u003e \nThe metal parts, too, are finished with a gentle, subtle patina that aligns with the V.O.S. (Vintage Original Spec) finish.\u003cbr\u003e \nRegarding the progression of the exterior condition, due to Murphy Lab’s aging specifications, it is difficult to accurately determine the extent of play wear; therefore, this report is based solely on our best estimates.\u003cbr\u003e \nDue to the circumstances mentioned above, we have rated the condition as “B+”; however, you may find it to be a relatively recent model with a beautiful, clean appearance.\u003cbr\u003e \nConsequently, there are no signs of heavy use or rough handling, giving the impression of a rare used instrument that appears to have never been played seriously.\u003cbr\u003e \nFurthermore, there are no signs of unusual soldering work on the control components, so it appears to be in fully original, “solder-virgin” condition, including the pickups.\u003cbr\u003e \nAlso... While the official color option at this time is limited to Sixties Cherry, the finish on this particular guitar is Tea Burst.\u003cbr\u003e \nConsidering all of this, I can’t help but feel that this is a rare and excellent used instrument.\u003cbr\u003e \nParts That May Have Been Replaced\u003cbr\u003e \nWhile the saddles on the ABR-1 bridge may have originally been made of nylon, the saddles on this particular guitar are nickel-plated brass. Brass saddles are known for producing a stable, classic tone, and their durability is also a plus, offering peace of mind.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nCondition Grade: B+: Some minor scratches, but no issues for normal use\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nSerial Number: 140368\u003cbr\u003e \nYear of Manufacture: 2024\u003cbr\u003e \nCountry of Manufacture: United States\u003cbr\u003e \nCase: Hard Case (Lifton Reissue 60s Type, Black\/Yellow Custom Shop Hardshell)\u003cbr\u003e \nAccessories: GCS Murphy Lab Ultra Light Aging Certificate, Pre-pack Checklist (Date: 5-6-24), Simplified Japanese Owner’s Manual, Various Tags, Hard Case Key\u003cbr\u003e \nWeight: 3.64 kg\u003cbr\u003e \nTruss Rod: No issues; checked up to 60 degrees left and right with no problems\u003cbr\u003e \nFret Wear: No issues; in like-new condition\u003cbr\u003e \nString Height (Low String Side): 2.0 mm at the 12th fret\u003cbr\u003e \nString Height (Low String Side): 1.5 mm at the 12th fret\u003cbr\u003e \nNut width: 42.85 mm\u003cbr\u003e \nNeck thickness near the 1st fret: 22.4 mm\u003cbr\u003e \nNeck thickness near the 12th fret: 24.7 mm\u003cbr\u003e \nScale: 628 mm (24.75\")\u003cbr\u003e \nRadius: 305 mm (12\")\u003cbr\u003e \nStrings at Setup: ERNIE BALL 2221 \/ .010-.046 set\u003cbr\u003e \nRepairs and Maintenance Performed: Cleaning, string replacement, truss rod adjustment, octave adjustment, action adjustment\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \n* As this is a used item, there may be scratches, dents, and other imperfections that are not clearly visible in the photos or not listed here.
