1958 Gibson Les Paul Very Early Tom Murphy Refinish - Gorgeous

Description: This is a one of a kind and a very special 1958 Les Paul Gold Top. Best sounding late 50's paf guitar I have ever played! Maybe it's because it only weighs 8.1 pounds? Ultra light and resonant. My guess is that is the secret sauce on this one? This guitar is a rare work of art by the most famous Les Paul Artist in the world, "Tom Murphy". I was lucky to have spoken recently with Tom about it; what a nice guy. Tom remembered this guitar very well even back to 1995. He told me he thought it may have been the very 1st guitar he refinished after leaving the Gibson Custom Shop and in his new shop. HIs main comment was how great the wood was on it, very special. Tom's work is impeccable! All these old LP's are different and they do not all sound that great. Have owned many late 50's Les Paul Gold Tops and sunburst guitars and this is far and away the very best. If I did not prefer Fenders would have never put it up for sale.There is not another one of these in the world... WE SHIP WORLDWIDE. Contact us with your full address for a shipping quote.

Integrity: There are many reasons to do business with honest and knowledgeable dealers like AJ's Music and Vintage Guitars. Lately we have seen many problematic, issue, and fake guitars being sold to the trusting public through popular sites. Many purchasers don't even realize it until it is too late. Places like Reverb and eBay will not guarantee a safe transaction anymore mainly due to their ignorance of knowing guitars well enough. There is no worse feeling than finding out the guitar you bought is worth a fraction of what you invested due to fraud and dishonesty. We are extremely careful when buying guitars so that your buying protection is always guaranteed. Please look into eBay and check our feedback, as these are actual transactions over many years, and not one way distorted Yelps or Googles, none of which are substantiated.
