Epiphone's Inspired by Gibson Custom Collection proudly presents the 1957 Les Paul Standard Goldtop Reissue. This guitar lovingly recreates the feel and tone of the 1957 Les Paul. Epiphone's long friendship with Mr. Les Paul began in 1940 when Les built one of the world's first solid body electric guitars while working nights at the original Epiphone factory in Manhattan. Les' 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. This guitar is crafted with a genuine mahogany body, Maple top, bound 50s Rounded Medium C shaped 1-piece mahogany neck, rosewood fretboard with mother-of-pearl trapezoid inlays, Epiphone Vintage Deluxe tuners, a pair of US made Gibson Custombuckers, Gold Top Hats with dial pointers, The Gibson inspired "open-book" headstock, Graph-Tech nut, era-appropriate wiring with CTS Potentiometers and Luxe Bumblebee Paper in Oil Capacitors. A Hardshell Inspired by Gibson Custom case is included.
