Epiphone Joe Bonamassa 59 Les Paul Custom - Antique Ebony with Hardshell Case

The Epiphone Joe Bonamassa 59 Les Paul Custom: A Black Beauty Reborn Classic Les Paul Design with Collector-Grade Appeal

Crafted in partnership with one of the most esteemed guitarists and collectors of our time, the Epiphone Joe Bonamassa 59 Les Paul Custom captures the heart of a legendary guitar. This model is based on Joe’s rare custom-ordered 1959 Les Paul Custom, famously dubbed the “Black Beauty,” which forgoes the traditional triple pickup layout in favor of a dual-pickup configuration. The all-mahogany body finished in Antique Ebony glows under aged yellowed binding, accentuating the timeless style of this limited-edition instrument.

Premium Feel and Playability

A comfortable 1959 Rounded Medium C-profile neck complements the vintage soul of this guitar with a smooth and natural feel that begs to be played. The bound ebony fingerboard offers 22 frets adorned with pearloid block inlays, and the multi-ply bound Kalamazoo-style headstock features the iconic Custom Split Diamond inlay in mother of pearl. A Graph Tech nut ensures long-term tuning stability while keeping friction to a minimum, even with aggressive vibrato use.

Powerful and Versatile Tone

The tonal engine behind this Les Paul Custom is a matched pair of Epiphone ProBucker Custom pickups. Delivering all the punch, warmth, and clarity you’d expect from a classic humbucker, these pickups are wired through high-quality CTS potentiometers for nuanced control over every tone. Whether you’re running clean or pushing through gain, the sonic output stays rich and articulate.

High-End Hardware for Inspired Performance

Gold-plated hardware across the board includes a LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge, Grover Imperial tuners, and the Bigsby B70 vibrato, bringing together visual elegance and functional reliability. From subtle shimmers to expressive pitch dives, the Bigsby adds expressive flair while maintaining tuning confidence. Every touchpoint of this guitar reflects thoughtfulness in both design and performance.

Signature Features and Exclusive Case

This instrument is a faithful tribute to one of the most unique guitars in Joe Bonamassa’s collection. Finished with a certificate of authenticity and housed in a hardshell case adorned with exclusive “Nerdville” graphics, this Les Paul Custom is equally suited for the stage, studio, or collection wall.
