You are looking at a 2014 Epiphone 1960 Les Paul Standard Tribute Plus. It is 1960 vintage-style Les Paul Reissue Inspired by Gibson Custom, with a rosewood fretboard.

The 1960 Gibson Les Paul Standard is one of the world’s most coveted vintage guitars. It has been embraced by such luminaries as Eric Clapton, Paul McCartney, Joe Walsh and many other iconic music superstars.

The guitar is very similar to the famous 1959 model year that preceded it, but with a few changes, most notably, a thinner and faster-playing SlimTaper neck profile that many players prefer over the somewhat beefier 1959 Les Paul Standard neck profile. 

CONDITION: This guitar has very low action, plays like butter and sounds awesome. It is in Pristine condition, meaning there are ZERO imperfections - no nicks, scratches, dents, abrasions, belt wear, cuts, etc., and no fret wear (frets are like new). When I say ZERO, I mean ZERO. If you find something in the pics that looks like an imperfection, it's the camera or lighting, not an imperfection on the guitar. It is absolutely perfect. This guitar sells at Gibson for $1,299.00.

This guitar is a beautiful recreation of the vintage 1960 Les Paul Standard model. Made in partnership with Gibson Custom, this 2014 Epiphone 1960 Les Paul Standard Tribute Plus delivers vintage Les Paul looks and performance at a great price. All of the classic appointments the 1960 Les Paul Standard model is known and loved for are present here, including a one-piece mahogany neck with a long neck tenon for increased stability and sustain, a comfortable, fast-playing SlimTaper profile, and a bound rosewood fretboard. It also features mother-of-pearl trapezoid fretboard inlays, an aged mother-of-pearl Epiphone headstock logo, and the words “Les Paul Model” silkscreened in gold on the Gibson-style “open book” headstock. Even the side dot position markers are the same size as on vintage 1960 Les Paul Standard models and are placed in historically accurate locations. The genuine mahogany body features a carved maple cap that is topped with a beautiful AAA flamed maple veneer. 

The electronics are equally impressive, with Push/Pull Tone Knobs, two USA Gibson "Custombucker" humbucking pickups with Alnico 3 magnets that are hand-wired to CTS potentiometers, Bumblebee paper-in-oil capacitors, and a Switchcraft pickup selector toggle switch and output jack. 

The Vintage Gloss finish gives the guitar a vintage appearance without looking overly aged and is nicely complimented by the nickel hardware, including the Grover tuners. 

As for the case, I give it a 7.5 out of 10. It is hard shell but not an original Gibson case. It is black, lockable (comes with 2 keys), and the guitar fits in it perfectly and snug.

This is the perfect Les Paul for players who love the vintage appeal of the classic 1959 Les Paul Standard but who want a more comfortable neck profile and a better price!

Comes with:Guitar (condition 10 out of 10)

Locking hardshell case (condition 7.5 out of 10), including 2 keys

Nice Guitar Strap (strap locks on guitar and strap)

I will not ship out of the continental U.S. so please don't ask.
