Epiphone Les Paul Standard, Aged Lemon Burst - Secondhand

Full Description

Premium construction

The Epiphone 1959 Les Paul Standard Outfit boasts a construction that's faithful to its legendary predecessor. With a figured AAA maple top paired with a full-weight mahogany back, this guitar not only delivers the classic Les Paul tone but also presents a visually striking appearance. The use of these high-quality tonewoods ensures a balanced sound profile, with the maple top adding brightness and clarity to the mahogany's warm and resonant qualities.

Authentic '59 sound

At the heart of this instrument's unparalleled sound are the American-made Gibson USA Burstbucker pickups. These pickups are meticulously designed to replicate the sought-after tone of the late '50s PAF (Patent Applied For) pickups, offering guitarists the opportunity to experience the crystal-clear, vintage tones that defined a generation of music. Wired with Mallory 150 polyester film capacitors and CTS pots, this setup provides a warm, smooth response that's perfect for everything from blues to rock.

Vintage aesthetics

The aged gloss finish of the Epiphone 1959 Les Paul Standard Outfit gives it an authentic, vintage charm that's reminiscent of the original models from the late '50s. This "VOS-like" finish not only enhances the guitar's visual appeal but also contributes to its overall vibe and playing experience. The meticulous attention to detail extends to the non-beveled plastics and the back "Custom Shop" Epiphone badge, adding to its historical authenticity.

Uncompromised quality

Quality hardware is essential for a guitar not just to sound good but to be reliable and durable. The Epiphone 1959 Les Paul Standard Outfit is equipped with premium components, including a Tune-o-matic bridge, Epiphone Vintage Deluxe 18:1 tuners, and a Switchcraft toggle and jack. These features ensure years of dependable performance, maintaining tuning stability and facilitating smooth and precise adjustments. For guitarists, this means less time worrying about hardware and more time enjoying the instrument's exceptional sound and playability.
