This is a beautiful Collectors Choise #13 Spoonful Burst Tom Murphy Aged. The CC13 is the faithful replica of the 1959 Les Paul with serial number 9-1352, originally purchased in Florida, later played by John Sebastian (guitarist of the "Lovin' Spoonful") on numerous tours and studio recordings. Since 1993 it has been owned by Gordon Kennedy, a guitarist and collector from Nashville, TN. The present "Spoonful Burst" captivates with its unique shade of "Faded Dirty Lemon Burst". Its neck, unlike most other Collectors Choice guitars, is a bit more grippy, almost a 58 profile, but by no means too fat or globby due to the Rounded Shoulders. Two perfectly balanced custom pickups (Alnico II and III) were used for the CC13, which deliver a top sound, warm, bluesy and transparent as needed, but also wonderfully smacky and biting with distortion. Extremely multi-faceted, this Les Paul feels at home in any musical genre. Collector owned and comes with all accesoires, papers and original case.
