The Epiphone 1959 Les Paul Standard Outfit, a stunning recreation of one of the most sought-after electric guitars in music history. Now musicians and collectors alike can experience the tone and feel of a vintage '59 Les Paul at an affordable price. Handcrafted in partnership with Gibson Custom Shop, this Les Paul reissue features a mahogany body with an AAA maple veneer top and comfortable 1959-style neck for superb playability and sustain. Outfitted with legendary Gibson USA Burstbucker pickups, this Les Paul delivers the warm, rounded tone that defined an era of rock music.

Iconic Burstbucker Pickups Provide Vintage PAF Tone

At the heart of this Les Paul are Gibson USA Burstbucker 2 and 3 humbucking pickups, which provide the warm, articulate tone of original late-50s PAF pickups. These pickups are made in the USA to exacting standards, using the same materials and construction as vintage PAFs. Combined with 50s-style wiring and high-quality CTS potentiometers and Mallory capacitors, these pickups deliver rich, multidimensional tone with clarity and definition.

Solid Mahogany Body and Maple Top

Like vintage Les Pauls of the era, this reissue features a solid mahogany body with a carved AAA maple veneer top. This combination produces a warm, balanced tone with singing sustain and natural compression. The maple top also gives this Les Paul a luxurious figured appearance beneath its aged gloss finish.

Comfortable, Medium C Neck Profile

The neck on this Les Paul reissue is shaped to the dimensions of a 1959 Les Paul, with a rounded, medium C profile that plays fast and comfortably. It's made from solid mahogany and features an Indian laurel fretboard with 22 medium-jumbo frets. The neck joint is a long tenon design for optimum tone transfer and sustain.

Vintage-Style Hardware and Finish

To complete the vintage vibe, this Les Paul features nickel hardware including a Tune-O-Matic bridge and stop tailpiece, and vintage-style deluxe tuners. It's finished in Aged Dark Burst or Aged Dark Cherry Burst gloss lacquer that captures the look of a well-loved original '59 Les Paul. A vintage-style hardshell case is included for protection and transport.
