Used Gibson Custom Shop Les Paul Standard R9 2018 Tom Murphy Painted Limited Run Wildwood Spec w/OHSC
This is from a collection of incredible instruments made in collaboration between Wildwood Guitars and the Gibson Custom Shop. They are a passion project from Tom Murphy to replicate original 1959 Bursts to the furthest extent possible.
The guitar is in "very good" condition. It has evidence that it has been played. There are some scratches around 1 of the volume knobs and around both tones that are extremely difficult to see unless hit under the right lighting. On the back there is some evidence of buckle rub but very little damage to the finish. There are 2 dings / impressions on the backside. One is in the middle of the headstock, the other is close to the cutaway. The low E tuner has a cosmetic split running in the plastic on both sides, it isn't causing any issues with function. Lastly, there is some bleeding of the cherry dye into the binding which we see commonly on Gibson Custom Shops Les Pauls. Everything has been tested and functions like it should. The truss rod is in great shape. It is a consignment piece here in the shop meaning all sales are final.
