Gibson Les Paul 1959 Standard Royal Tea Burst Murphy Lab Light Aged

Royal Tea Burst on a handpicked '59 top: the Les Paul as a royal instrument

Together with Gibson, we have joined forces for a unique selection of Murphy Lab guitars that are only available at Dijkmans Guitars. For this model, we chose the Royal Tea Burst finish: a warm, rich color that beautifully brings out the figuring of the handpicked maple top. The Murphy Lab Light Aged treatment gives the guitar just enough patina to feel authentic, without the pronounced wear of the heavier aging variants.

Together with Tom Fowle from Gibson, we personally selected each top and matched it with the most beautiful finishes. The 2-piece figured maple top on a 1-piece lightweight mahogany body gives the guitar that characteristic resonance and sustain of the '59 Les Paul. The two Custombucker Alnico 3 humbuckers, unpotted and tuned to PAF specifications, deliver a warm, open sound with a rich midrange and a dynamic response to every nuance in your playing.

Specs: Authentic '59 Medium C-Shape neck, Indian Rosewood fretboard with cellulose nitrate trapezoid inlays, ABR-1 bridge, Kluson Single Line/Single Ring tuners, Murphy Lab Heavy Aged nickel hardware, and paper-in-oil capacitors. Delivered in an Aged Brown/Pink Lifton Reissue 5-latch case.
