Terry Morgan 1959 Les Paul Replica - Please Read Below
Hopefully if you're reading this you know about Terry Morgan, he makes some of (if not the) best vintage Gibson replicas on the planet. He's very hard to get in contact with unless via an introduction, has no web-site but a long waiting list etc.
In addition to his 'normal' replicas he makes a small number of replicas out of old (period correct) wood - this guitar is one of those.
This was built to order by Terry for a professional touring musician, who wanted an instrument to exactly replicate his 59 burst for the times he didn't want to take it out.
And that's what this is, it has the same asymmetrical carve on the neck everything just a missing zero off the price tag.
Electronics wise - this is fitted with:
1. Bridge pickup - a short magnet PAF, not rewound or potted
2.Neck pickup - very early PAT pickup, with the same wire as the PAF, again not rewound or potted.
Pots and capacitors are genuine (not repro) 1959 items. Fretboard markers genuine celluloid etc.etc
This guitar sounds absolutely amazing, it's alive and vibrant, and very responsive to the tone and volume controls.
I don't have a case with it - so will buy a brand new Hiscox case to ship it in, I welcome global shipping and of course local pickup from Central London.
If you were interested I possibly have a handle (if you excuse the pun) on a genuine 1959 5 latch case to go with this, but that would be by separate negotiation.
Any questions please ask
