Description
The Epiphone 1960 Les Paul Standard Reissue is a stunning recreation of one of the most legendary guitars ever made. Built in partnership with Gibson Custom, this model faithfully captures the look, tone, and feel of the coveted 1960 Gibson Les Paul Standard, known for its faster-playing SlimTaper™ neck profile and timeless sound.
Featuring a solid mahogany body with a carved maple cap and AAA flamed maple veneer, it delivers exceptional resonance and sustain. The one-piece mahogany neck with a long tenon joint ensures vintage-correct stability, while the rosewood fingerboard with mother-of-pearl trapezoid inlays gives it authentic style.
At its heart are two Gibson Custombucker humbuckers, wired with CTS® potentiometers and Bumblebee paper-in-oil capacitors for rich, dynamic tone. Premium appointments such as nickel hardware, ABR-1 bridge, and Epiphone Deluxe Double Ring Keystone tuners complete this faithful reissue. Finished in a classy Vintage Gloss, it balances vintage character with modern playability.
Each guitar includes a brown hardshell case with pink plush interior, inspired by Gibson Custom Shop cases.
