The 1959 Gibson Les Paul Standard is one of the most celebrated electric guitars ever made, prized for its unmistakable tone, timeless looks and legendary reputation. Developed in partnership with Gibson Custom, the Epiphone 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue faithfully recreates the feel and character of this iconic model, making the vintage Les Paul experience more accessible than ever.

Featuring a mahogany body with a carved maple cap and AAA flamed maple veneer, this reissue pairs classic looks with authentic construction. The one piece mahogany neck features the substantial 1959 Rounded Medium C profile and a long neck tenon for excellent sustain, while the bound rosewood fingerboard completes the vintage playing experience. A pair of USA Gibson Custombucker pickups, hand wired with premium CTS electronics and Black Beauty paper in oil capacitors, delivers the warm, articulate PAF inspired tones that made the original 1959 Les Paul so revered.

Finished in Vintage Gloss with nickel hardware and historically accurate appointments throughout, this reissue perfectly captures the spirit of one of Gibson's most iconic guitars. It comes complete with its Inspired by Gibson Custom hardshell case and TFOA Passport.

This instrument has been carefully inspected for originality, condition and playability, then set up to our Gold Standard by a luthier. We make sure it arrives in your hands exactly as it should: sounding its best, playing effortlessly and ready to be enjoyed from the very first note.
