A rare gem right here. This is a 2018 Wildwood Spec by Tom Murphy '58 Les Paul that was both Painted AND Aged by Tom Murphy himself, not the Murphy Lab! (fun fact, his signature "TM" initials are marked in the checking below the control knobs)The finish is Tom's Tea, which truly looks like a real/original faded 50's burst. This is no "plain top". The flamed maple top on this is nice and pronounced, and more typical of what you'd see on an R9. The neck is nice and comfortable, slightly bigger than your typical R9 neck, but not too chunky.This has been case kept and babied and only thing to report cosmetically is there is some binding bleed, which is very typical of these due to the dye used. The cases on these were also aged from the factory.
