Description

In the pursuit of finding great Les Paul s we couldn t help ourselves after we opened the case to this rare beauty.  This is a really amazing example of Tom Murphy s aging process on a 59 Les Paul historic.  If you re a student of real bursts you ll notice that this guitar has that faded sunburst color that the we all love.  This particular guitar was a special order for the Japanese market and distributer Yamano and finished in a custom color Sunrise Teaburst.  It somehow didn t go to Japan and our customer in the US has had it for years.  Some very cool upgrades were done.  A set of Gibson prototype pickups were installed by BCR Music and Greg was told only four sets were made.  It was rumored that Joe Perry got a set to try out.  They sound great and were probably an early version of the custombucker.  All case candy and COA are included.  I can hear the Bluesbreaker licks playing already.
