Epiphone Les Paul Standard 60s (Incl. Premium Gig Bag) | Candy Red Metallic
Epiphone Les Paul Standard 60s (Incl. Premium Gig Bag) | Candy Red Metallic
Few instruments carry the weight of history like the late-fifties and early-sixties Gibson Les Paul Standards. Originally conceived to provide a sophisticated alternative to the utilitarian solid-body guitars of the day, these instruments eventually became the foundation of rock and roll. The relationship between Epiphone and Mr. Les Paul himself dates back to 1940, when he built "The Log"—one of the world's first solid-body electrics—at the Epiphone factory in Manhattan. This new Inspired by Gibson Les Paul Standard 60s solves the modern guitarist's challenge of finding that legendary "Burst" magic without the six-figure vintage price tag. It is an evocative tribute that captures the exact moment the Les Paul transitioned into the sleeker, faster instrument preferred by the guitar heroes of the 1960s.
The performance benefits of this model are rooted in its era-specific SlimTaper 60s C neck profile, providing a fast and comfortable feel that reduces hand fatigue during long sets. The foundation of the tone is a classic mahogany body paired with a maple cap, delivering the warmth and sustain that defined a thousand hit recordings. Powering the instrument is a calibrated set of ProBucker pickups, featuring a ProBucker 2 in the neck for glassy clarity and a slightly hotter ProBucker 3 in the bridge for saturated leads. These are hand-wired to high-quality CTS potentiometers, ensuring your tonal adjustments are smooth and precise. With Grover Rotomatic tuners and a Graph Tech nut providing rock-solid stability, this guitar is designed for players who value professional-grade reliability and authentic heritage.
