The Epiphone Limited Edition Inspired by "1955" Les Paul Custom Outfit is a highly regarded historic reissue that replicates the aesthetics and raw power of the original 1955 Gibson "Black Beauty". It stands out from modern iterations by featuring era-correct Gibson USA Soapbar P-90 single-coil pickups and a thick, period-accurate neck profile. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]Key Technical SpecificationsThe guitar was built with premium materials designed to emulate the sustain and resonance of a true vintage instrument: [1, 2, 3, 4]

  • Body: Solid mahogany with a vintage-style Aged Gloss Ebony finish.
  • Neck: Mahogany with a robust 50s-style rounded "C" profile (often compared to a thick "baseball bat" carve) and a deep-set glued joint.
  • Fingerboard: Genuine ebony with a 12" radius, 22 medium frets, and vintage-style pearloid block inlays.
  • Pickups: Two Gibson USA Soapbar P-90s featuring gold pole screws, delivering a high-output, punchy mid-range snap.
  • Hardware: Fully gold-plated, including an Epiphone LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge, stopbar tailpiece, and Epiphone "Deluxe" vintage tuners. [1, 2, 3, 4]

The "Outfit" PackageAs part of the "Outfit" designation, this limited-edition release came bundled with specific "case candy" and accessories: [1, 2, 3]

  • A vintage-style vintage hardshell case featuring a black or brown exterior and a vibrant, hot pink plush interior.
  • A formal Certificate of Authenticity signed by Epiphone. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

Player & Community Consensus

  • The Neck Profile: This neck is noticeably chunkier than standard modern SlimTaper designs. It is ideal for players who prefer a substantial, vintage-feeling grip to wrap their hands around. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
  • Fret Attack: Mirroring the original "Fretless Wonder," the frets are lower and smaller than modern medium-jumbos, giving it a unique feel and a slightly slower note attack highly praised by jazz and blues players. [, 3]
  • Sonic Footprint: Despite being single-coils, reviewers consistently note that these specific Gibson P-90s are remarkably quiet and noise-free, roaring like humbuckers when pushed into heavy distortion while retaining excellent note clarity
  • Body Material: Solid Mahogany
  • Body Shape: Les Paul
  • Finish: Aged Gloss Ebony
  • Top Binding: 7-layer (Ivory/Black)
  • Back Binding: 5-layer (Ivory/Black)
