Epiphone Les Paul Standard 50s Plain Top (Incl. Premium Gig Bag); Classic White
Epiphone Les Paul Standard 50s Plain Top (Incl. Premium Gig Bag); Classic White
The late 1950s Gibson Les Paul Standards, affectionately known as "Bursts," represent the pinnacle of electric guitar design. These instruments transitioned from tools of the trade to the most coveted relics in the world, defining the sound of rock, blues, and soul on the world’s most famous stages. The legacy of this model is deeply intertwined with Epiphone’s own history; it was at the Epiphone factory in Manhattan where Les Paul developed "The Log," the experimental solidbody that eventually paved the way for the Standard. The Les Paul Standard 50s Figured serves as an authoritative tribute to this golden era, solving the modern player's search for that specific vintage weight and character. By combining a mahogany body with a stunning figured maple veneer, this guitar provides the aesthetic prestige and harmonic richness of a museum-piece original in a package built for the demands of the contemporary musician
The performance benefits of the Standard 50s Figured are rooted in its 1959 Rounded Medium C neck profile and long neck tenon. This substantial neck carve not only provides a satisfyingly hand-filling feel for traditional techniques but also ensures superior vibration transfer and sustain. The sonic signature is defined by a pair of Epiphone ProBucker pickups, meticulously designed to replicate the "glassy" clarity and "noiseless punch" of original PAF humbuckers. A ProBucker 1 in the neck and a ProBucker 2 in the bridge offer a perfectly balanced output, while the authentic 50s-style wiring and high-quality CTS potentiometers allow for nuanced control over your tone. Completed with Epiphone Vintage Deluxe tuners and a Graph Tech nut, this instrument provides rock-solid tuning stability, ensuring that the legendary "Burst" experience is as reliable as it is evocative.
