Epiphone - Les Paul Standard 60s - Electric Guitar - Ebony - w/ Premium Gigbag
Authentic 60s-era Les Paul looks, tone, and feel for every stage
Few guitars can claim the legendary status of the 1958-1960 Gibson Les Paul™ Standards. Acclaimed for their beauty, smooth playability, and exceptional tone, they are among the most cherished vintage guitars on the planet, having been seen in the hands of countless musicians on concert stages worldwide and featured on numerous hit recordings. Now, Epiphone is proud to introduce the updated Les Paul Standard 60s, an Inspired by Gibson tribute to those legendary guitars that lovingly recreates the feel and tone of the era’s Les Paul Standards.
Epiphone’s long friendship with Mr. Les Paul began in 1940 when Les built one of the world’s first solidbody electric guitars while working nights at the original Epiphone factory in Manhattan. Les’s first solid body guitar, nicknamed “the Log,” would go on to inspire the Les Paul™ Standard, which many consider the greatest electric guitar ever made. The Les Paul Standard 60s models from the Epiphone Inspired by Gibson™ Collection recreate the look, feel, and sound of the early 1960s-era Les Pauls. They feature a mahogany body with a maple cap. The mahogany neck sports a rosewood fretboard with pearloid trapezoid inlays, 22 medium jumbo frets, and a fast-playing SlimTaper™ 60s C profile. The 60s Kalamazoo headstock is equipped with quality Grover® Rotomatic® tuning machines and a Graph Tech® nut for rock-solid tuning stability, so you can spend more time playing and less time tuning. The Les Paul Standard 60s is powered by a perfectly balanced set of Epiphone’s acclaimed ProBucker™ pickups, with a ProBucker 2 in the neck position and a slightly hotter ProBucker 3 in the bridge, and each pickup is wired to its own individual set of volume and tone controls that feature high-quality CTS® potentiometers. Packaged in a Premium Gig Bag, the Epiphone Les Paul Standard 60s is a great way to enjoy an authentic Les Paul playing experience at an accessible price.
