Description

Always one of the hottest Rock'n'Roll guitars for me, ...the Gibson Les Paul 1959 Joe Perry! Only 50 specimens were made in the “Aged & Signed” version. These have of course long since sold out and are virtually impossible to find on the second-hand market. Prices are rising continuously and we are pleased to be able to offer you the single digit(!) serial number 9 of this sought-after collector's item. These “single digits” are particularly sought-after and are therefore priced somewhat higher. In addition, this Paula has a few special features: on the one hand, it has a beautiful top and a uniquely distinctive grain. Of course Tom Murphy personally replicated every trace of play and use and every varnish abrasion from the original during the aging process, as well as applying countless hairline cracks and a fantastic vintage patina. As can be seen from the enclosed certificate of authenticity, the previous owner was also able to have this guitar, which is normally only signed by Joe Perry, signed by Slash during his concert with Myles Kennedy at the Zenith in Munich on 25.04.2024. As is well known, Perry gave the Les Paul to Slash, legendary guitarist of Guns'n'Roses, who then immortalized it with his unique solo in the video for “November Rain”. The Paula with its super comfortable 59 Medium neck profile plays excellently and is including the frets in top condition. Despite its absolutely unique selling point as probably the only Les Paul signed by both artists, it should not only appeal to collectors as it is also fully convincing as a player. Smacking, differentiated Rock sound at its very best with the very characteristic tone that we know from both Aerosmith and Guns'n'Roses. “Train Kept A Rollin'”, ‘November Rain’ - these are the sounds of this guitar! Both clean and distorted the sound is as vivid as it is full of energy and simply great fun. Whether as a guitar with the highest fun factor, a professional player or a music-historical icon - everything is just right here!incl. original case, certificate, hangtags, security locksweight: 4030 gramssubject to differential taxation
