{"product_id":"03-2800005640854","title":"[SN 961122] USED Gibson Custom Shop \/ Murphy Lab 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue Ultra Light Aged Southern Fade [03]","description":"We’ve just received a used 2026 Murphy Lab 1959 Les Paul Standard Ultra Light Aged!\u003cbr\u003e \nThe division led by aging master Tom Murphy uses a special, ultra-thin nitrocellulose lacquer developed based on years of scientific research. This authentically reproduces the superb tone and the vintage-specific weather checking—a subtle discoloration and patina that develops naturally when the guitar is carefully stored in its case.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThe “Ultra Light Aged” finish is the lightest in the series, recreating the natural patina and cracks of the ultra-thin lacquer—as well as the subtle tarnish on the hardware—rather than featuring flashy scratches.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nIt features a carefully selected two-piece figured maple top and a lightweight one-piece mahogany back. The rosewood fingerboard features rolled edges for a smooth, comfortable grip.\u003cbr\u003e \nTraditional hide glue is used to bond the body and neck, and a tubeless truss rod is employed. It boasts the excellent natural resonance and response characteristic of vintage instruments.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThe neck shape is the “Authentic ’59 Medium C-Shape,” which offers just the right amount of grip and maintains a consistent thickness from the low to the high frets without extreme changes in thickness.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nIt is equipped with a Custombucker Alnico 2 (Unpotted) pickup. Compared to Alnico 3, which has a clear, mature tone, Alnico 2 has slightly weaker magnetism and is characterized by a unique粘り (stickiness) and sweet tone in the low-mid range. Even when distorted, the sound does not become thin, producing a juicy, thick drive sound.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nDue to the aged finish, the details of any scratches that may have been added later are unclear; however, there are almost no noticeable scratches, and the guitar remains in excellent condition.\u003cbr\u003e \nThe neck is in good condition, and the frets show almost no wear.\u003cbr\u003e \nAll accessories, including the certificate of authenticity, are included.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nThis is a distinctive instrument characterized by its elegant color and the wide flame pattern that stands out due to the angle of the wood!\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \n* Please note that due to the nature of this product, we are unable to transfer it between stores.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nCondition Grade: B+: Some minor scratches are present, but the instrument is suitable for normal use.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nSerial Number: 961122\u003cbr\u003e \nYear of Manufacture: 2026\u003cbr\u003e \nCountry of Manufacture: United States\u003cbr\u003e \nCase: Hard case\u003cbr\u003e \nAccessories: Certificate of Authenticity, manual and tags, toggle switch back panel, case key\u003cbr\u003e \nWeight: 3.92 kg\u003cbr\u003e \nTruss Rod: No issues; rod movement tested up to 60 degrees left and right with no problems\u003cbr\u003e \nRemaining Fret Life: Within normal range; fret height is sufficient for playing\u003cbr\u003e \nString Height (Low Strings): 2.0 mm at the 12th fret\u003cbr\u003e \nString action (low-string side): 1.5 mm at the 12th fret\u003cbr\u003e \nNut width: 42.87 mm\u003cbr\u003e \nNeck thickness near the 1st fret: 22.14 mm\u003cbr\u003e \nNeck thickness near the 12th fret: 24.91 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.
