Epiphone 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue Deep Cherry Sunburst

Epiphone 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue - Deep Cherry Sunburst & real 50s tone with Gibson Custombuckers

In collaboration with Gibson, Epiphone delivers a faithful reissue model of the legendary 1959 Les Paul Standard, which shines with authentic features and the iconic charm of the late 1950s! Compared to the later 60s models, the 1959 Les Paul Standard offers all the advantages that should be of particular interest to vintage fanatics: In detail, the mahogany body bears a maple top with a chic AAA-quality curly maple veneer, the grain of which is skillfully set off by the deep cherry sunburst finish. The mahogany neck is characterised by the 1959 Rounded "C" medium neck profile, while the 22-fret rosewood fingerboard with classic mother-of-pearl trapezoid inlays completes the legendary Vintage-Look. At the heart of the Epiphone 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue are two original Gibson Custombucker pickups in the neck and bridge positions, which produce the authentic Les Paul sound with assertive mids and plenty of low-end. In terms of hardware, Epiphone naturally relies on an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge with Historic aluminium Tailpiece and the in-house Epiphone "Deluxe" tuners with white keystone buttons. The electric guitar also comes with a matching hardshell case for safe transportation!
