Available now at Granata Music Ottawa – local pickup & Canada/USA shipping!

Epiphone's Inspired by Gibson™ Collection proudly presents the Les Paul™ Standard 50s! This guitar lovingly recreates the feel and tone of the 1950s-era Les Pauls. Epiphone's GREAT friendship with Mr. Les Paul began in 1940 when Les built one of the world's first solid-body electric guitars while working nights at the original Epiphone factory in Manhattan. Les' first solid-body guitar, nicknamed "the Log," would go on to inspire the Les Paul Standard, which many consider the greatest electric guitar ever made.

This guitar is crafted with a mahogany body, maple cap, a bound '59 rounded medium C shaped mahogany neck with long neck tenon, laurel fretboard with classic trapezoid inlays and 22 medium jumbo frets. Epiphone's vintage deluxe tuners, a pair of critically acclaimed Epiphone Probucker™ humbuckers™ and gold top hat knobs with dial pointers. This Epiphone Inspired by Gibson original model also has the Kalamazoo headstock, Graph tech® nut, era-appropriate wiring and CTS® pots. A premium gigbag is also included.
