Gibson / Les Paul Murphy Painted 1959 Les Paul BOTB Cover Japan Limited Edition / 2015 / Murphy Burst / Guitar

Yes, sir! Another Murphy Painted Gibson 1959 Les Paul! This time it’s a VERY rare 2015 limited edition of just 25 guitars for the Japanese market ONLY, based on the Beauty of the ‘Burst’s cover guitar, the Stanley Burst!



Every top on this guitar was selected by Yasuhiko Iwanade (author of “The Beauty of the ‘Burst”) and Edwin Wilson, and hand-painted by Tom Murphy.



Insane top, extremely tridimensional wide flames! It works even better with the Murphy colors, which are an absolute treat to the eye.



Very dark fretboard, and comfy neck, definitely a classic ’59 shape. The guitar has 2014 specs but is actually a 2015 guitar (shipped in February 2015).



Super light body! Only 8lbs 6oz (3800gr)!! I can not stress enough just how resonant this guitar is, it will blow you away!



Custom Buckers, VOS finish, and a TON of case candy come with the guitar. Includes all Japan import paperwork, Hand Selected COA, commemorative cavity plate and toggle switch plate, original shipping box label, tags, etc. NO, we did not forget the white gloves!



Just how cool is that? These guitars rarely make it out of Japan, we know just how hermetic collectors there are…



This is about as rare and exclusive a run can get, and now it can be in your hands. Just sayin’. ;)

In the last few years, online sale for musical instruments has experienced an amazing growth, but has passed right through the pre-owned market (that is, in Spain), limiting it to specialised forums and private owners. This is why Guitar Giraffe was born, the first physical and online second hand guitar and amp store (we like to call it "pre-owned", since we see a big difference between both terms), with a clear commitment of giving new options to guitarists locally and worldwide. Pre-owned guitar stores, so common in UK and USA, were practically nonexistent in Spain. We’ve wanted to fill that empty space by becoming the first physical and online store in our country focused on pre-owned guitars and amps.
