夢幻逸品2004 Gibson Custom Shop Jimmy Page Les Paul #1 "Number One" Reissue Tom Murphy Aged
稀有夢幻琴款,全球限量150支,這是Gibson Custom於2004年發表限量琴款,這是少數由Gibson傳奇技師Tom Murphy親手操刀的復刻簽名琴,復刻於Led Zeppelin傳奇吉他手Jimmy Page手中無編號的Les Paul Standard No.1,隨後於2009年推出了Jimmy Page另一把標誌性吉他Les Paul No.2。
Jimmy Page於1969年從Joe Walsh手中購入了這把傳奇的Les Paul No.1,其琴頸在購入前就已經幾乎被磨光了,同時也沒有序號,所以無法分辨其生產年份為1959年或1960年。而這把吉他在1970年代跟隨著Jimmy Page錄製了Led Zeppelin許多歌曲並且參與了許多演出,它成為Jimmy Page最珍貴的吉他之一,甚至形容這把吉他是他無可取代的「情婦」。
琴面採用了與原琴相同的經典Page Burst與不對稱的斜面楓木Top、相同形狀的琴頸,原廠搭配一組複製原琴數值的Jimmy Page Custom Burstbucker拾音器,並擁有與原琴相同的out of phase功能,後段拾音器可分離線圈,擁有Jimmy Page標誌性的音色,與普通的Les Paul截然不同。而Tom Murphy完整複製了原琴的所有傷痕,讓任何細節都盡可能接近原琴,甚至複製了原琴更換Grover Rotomatics弦鈕而產生多餘的螺絲孔,從木頭選料、外觀、配色一直到音色共鳴等,都是一支非常完美無可挑惕的Les Paul復刻琴。
2021年後推出的Murphy Lab系列已不再由Tom Murphy本人操刀製作,而在過去十幾年來,Slash、Jimmy Page、Joe Perry等,只要由Tom Murphy本人製作的復刻簽名琴,不只是保值,許多在市場上價格都翻了兩三倍。而特別的是,Jimmy Page在此No.1舊化版本的證書上有著親筆簽名,內行的收藏家應該都知道,在後期Gibson推出的所有復刻代言琴,普通舊化版證書中的代言人簽名皆為印刷,而Gibson在2004年給了這款Jimmy Page復刻琴特別待遇,這也導致了Jimmy Page No.1 Aged在市場上有著極高的收藏價值。

Limited to 150 units worldwide, this is a limited edition model released by Gibson Custom in 2004, and it is from Yamano, Japan. It is one of the few replicas aged by Gibson's legendary luthier Tom Murphy, modeled after Led Zeppelin's iconic guitarist Jimmy Page's unnumbered Les Paul Standard No.1. Subsequently, in 2009, Gibson released Jimmy Page's other iconic guitar, the Les Paul No.2.
Jimmy Page purchased this legendary Les Paul No.1 from Joe Walsh in 1969. The guitar neck was almost worn out before the purchase, and it had no serial number, making it impossible to determine if it was produced in 1959 or 1960. This guitar followed Jimmy Page throughout the 1970s, recording numerous Led Zeppelin songs and participating in many performances. It became one of Jimmy Page's most treasured guitars, even describing it as his irreplaceable "mistress."
The guitar features the classic Page Burst finish and an asymmetrical flamed maple top identical to the original, with the same neck shape. It is equipped with a set of Jimmy Page Custom Burstbucker pickups replicating the original's specifications and includes the same out-of-phase functionality. The bridge pickup can be coil-split, delivering Jimmy Page's signature tone, distinctly different from a standard Les Paul. Tom Murphy meticulously replicated all the original guitar's wear and tear, ensuring every detail is as close to the original as possible. This includes replicating the extra screw holes from the replacement of Grover Rotomatics tuners. From the wood selection, appearance, and color to the tonal resonance, this is a perfect, flawless Les Paul replica.
After 2021, the Murphy Lab series was no longer crafted by Tom Murphy himself. Over the past decade, replicas made by Tom Murphy for artists such as Slash, Jimmy Page, and Joe Perry have not only retained their value but have seen their market prices multiply. Notably, Jimmy Page personally signed the certificate for this No.1 aged version. Savvy collectors would know that, in later Gibson reissue signature guitars, the artist's signature on the certificate of the standard aged version is typically printed, not a real signed. However, Gibson gave special treatment to this guitar, resulting in the Jimmy Page No.1 Aged having exceptionally high collectible value in the market.
The guitar is kept in good condition, with the frets being approximately 80% new, and the certificate shows some aging.
