Frequently Asked Questions
Murphy Lab guitars receive an extra level of scrutiny and refinement, often incorporating subtle refinements to the neck profile and finish, resulting in a more resonant and responsive instrument.
The finish cracks are cosmetic, achieved through a carefully controlled aging process. They don't significantly impact the tone, but contribute to the vintage aesthetic.
Unpotted pickups have a lower output and a more open, dynamic sound, lacking the compression of potted pickups – closer to the original '60s tone.
