USED Gibson Custom Shop / Murphy Lab 1959 ES-335 Reissue Ultra Light Aged Vintage Natural [09]

Used 2022.
This model is a Murphy Labs reproduction of a 1959 ES-335!

The body is 3-piece maple/poplar/maple construction with a solid maple center block with no open rear cavity.
Long pickguard with single line cruson pegs and ABR-1 bridge, which is a characteristic of the '59.
Amber Catalin strap pins are used, and the Authentic '59 Medium C-Shape neck is thicker and stiffer than the '60 version.

The pickups are Custombucker Alnico 3 (unpotted).
The finish is a natural color, a characteristic of '58 and '59, which is a good match with the Murphy Lab's aging and burnt natural color!

The sound has a core sound from the thick neck, and even with a drive sound, the midrange is appealing without being buried.
It is suitable for rock, blues, jazz, and other genres.

The Murphy Lab Collection is the culmination of years of aging technology.
The combination of light weather check and light-aged hardware reproduces the condition that the instrument has been carefully kept in its case.

There is a scratch on the front left side horn where the strap hardware has been hit.
