Epiphone 1959 Les Paul Standard – Aged Dark Cherry Burst – Limited Edition
Epiphone’s 1959 Les Paul Standard is a faithful tribute to the most iconic electric guitar ever made, offering vintage-inspired tone, feel, and aesthetics—all at a player-friendly price. This limited-edition model was designed in partnership with the Gibson Custom Shop and is packed with premium specs.
Built with a solid mahogany body and a carved maple cap topped with a AAA flame maple veneer, this guitar delivers the warm, punchy resonance you expect from a ‘59-style Les Paul. The one-piece mahogany neck features a vintage ’59 Rounded Medium C profile, making it incredibly comfortable for both rhythm and lead work.
Loaded with USA-made Gibson Custombucker pickups, CTS pots, Mallory capacitors, and ’50s-style wiring, it nails that golden-era Les Paul tone—thick, dynamic, and expressive.
