USED Gibson Custom Shop / Murphy Lab 1959 Les Paul Standard Light Aged Dirty Lemon [03]

We’ve just received a used 2025 Murphy Lab 1959 Les Paul Standard Light Aged!
The “Light Aged” finish was developed by a division led by aging master Tom Murphy, using a special, ultra-thin nitrocellulose lacquer formulated based on years of scientific research. This process reproduces not only superb tone and densely etched weather checking but also very natural playwear and a subtle patina on the hardware.

The wood configuration features a two-piece figured maple top, a one-piece lightweight mahogany back, a solid mahogany neck, and an Indian rosewood fingerboard. Traditional hide glue is used for all joints, resulting in a cohesive body that boasts the superb natural resonance and response characteristic of vintage instruments.

The neck features the “Authentic ’59 Medium C-Shape” with just the right amount of grip, paired with “Historic Medium-Jumbo” frets, ensuring excellent playability.

It is equipped with a “Custombucker Alnico 3 (Unpotted)” pickup. By leaving the pickup unpotted, it responds well to variations in picking dynamics and nuances, producing a sweet, mellow vintage tone characteristic of a vintage PAF—clear yet responsive across a wide frequency range.

Furthermore, this particular guitar is an ultra-lightweight model weighing just “3.59 kg.” Not only is it easy to handle, but it also boasts an appealing acoustic tone with a high-quality, airy resonance—all while retaining the thick, core-like sound characteristic of Les Pauls.

Due to the light-aged finish, the details of any subsequent scratches are unclear, but combined with its age, it shows almost no signs of wear. The neck is in excellent condition, and the frets have ample height.

With its understated “Dirty Lemon” finish and eye-catching grain that shifts in appearance depending on the angle, this is a truly captivating instrument. Enjoy the superb tone unique to such an ultra-lightweight guitar!
