Description
With the iconic look and sound of 1950s-era Les Pauls, the Epiphone Les Paul Standard ’50s is full of vintage character and classic rock ’n’ roll vibe. A mahogany body pours out warm resonance, while a maple top punches up the tone with clarity and snap. The ’50s Rounded C neck fits snugly into your hand, making it a favorite of guitarists for easy chording and dynamic fret runs. Powered by alnico ProBucker pickups, the Epiphone Les Paul Standard ’50s has a distinctive rock ’n’ roll growl when pushed and a warm, pleasant top end when you lay back. Premium appointments, such as Epiphone Vintage Deluxe tuning machine heads, LockTone ABR Tune-o-matic bridge, and high-quality CTS ’50s-style wiring, complete this formidable tone machine package.
A universe of tone with ProBucker pickups
The ProBuckers on the Les Paul Standard ’50s feature Alnico II magnets — the same as sought-after vintage PAF humbuckers — for a rich, warm tone with crystalline highs and a tight bottom. With a ProBucker 1 in the neck position and a (slightly overwound) ProBucker 2 in the bridge position, crank your gain, and you can do some serious damage. We’re talking legendary Les Paul — fat, snarling tone served up with exceptional sustain
The Les Paul backstory
The Les Paul story started with an instrument called “The Log.” In the early 1940s, on a quest for an electric guitar that would sustain for days, Les Paul — the legendary guitarist and inventor — fashioned what may well have been the first solidbody guitar from a length of common 4-inch x 4-inch lumber. For appearances (and possibly playing comfort), Les sawed an Epiphone hollowbody in half and attached the two “wings” to either side of The Log. Les continued to develop the idea through a series of prototypes, ultimately resulting in the classic solidbody guitar we know and love.
With a Les Paul, you’re in good company
From rock to fusion and beyond, the Les Paul’s surly snarl has virtually defined attitude-laden, overdriven guitar tone. Legendary guitarists such as Jimmy Page, Al Di Meola, Alex Lifeson, Slash, and countless others have forged their signature sounds with a Les Paul. Epiphone now gives you the opportunity to experience that one-of-a-kind tone and look at an amazingly affordable price with the Les Paul Standard ’50s. What’s more, the Standard ’50s comes with Epiphone’s limited lifetime warranty and is backed by Gibson’s 24/7/365 customer service — so you know you’re making a solid investment.
