This beautiful R9 Les Paul served as a prototype for Gibson's Murphy Lab. It has been aged by Tom Murphy prior to the establishment of the Murphy Lab, and was owned personally by Tom. Its original Gibson humbuckers were replaced with ThroBak PAF reproductions, which sound incredible. Comes with a COA signed by Walter Carter and a handwritten letter by Tom Murphy in its original hard case.

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
