    Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Custom 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue Guitar

    The Epiphone 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue brings legendary vintage tone and craftsmanship within reach of every serious player. Created in partnership with Gibson Custom, this meticulous recreation captures the magic of the original 1959 Les Paul Standard — the holy grail guitar that legends like Peter Green, Kirk Hammett, and Joe Bonamassa have wielded to create music history.

    Epiphone 1959 Les Paul The Soul of the 59

    The Soul of the '59

    This isn't just another reissue; it's your gateway to authentic vintage Les Paul character without the six-figure price tag. Every detail has been carefully considered to deliver that coveted '59 sound and feel:

    • USA Gibson Custombucker Pickups: Hand-wired Alnico 3 humbuckers deliver the raw, dynamic PAF tones that defined rock's golden age.
    • Premium Electronics: CTS potentiometers, Bumblebee paper-in-oil capacitors, and Switchcraft hardware ensure signal integrity and vintage authenticity.
    • Mahogany Tonewoods: One-piece mahogany neck with long tenon joint provides exceptional sustain and stability.

    Playability That Honors the Past

    The 1959 Rounded Medium C neck profile is where this guitar truly shines. Unlike the thinner SlimTaper necks found on 1960 models, this beefier profile fills your hand with confidence-inspiring substance that many players prefer for its comfortable grip and enhanced sustain.

    • Bound Rosewood Fretboard: Mother-of-pearl trapezoid inlays and historic-sized side dots placed in vintage-accurate positions.
    • Long Tenon Construction: The one-piece mahogany neck extends deep into the body for rock-solid stability and enhanced sustain.
    • C-Shape Neck Profile: The 1959 Rounded Medium C-shape provides the perfect balance of comfort and vintage authenticity.

    Epiphone 1959 Les Paul Visual Drama Meets Vintage Class

    Visual Drama Meets Vintage Class

    This guitar doesn't just sound legendary — it looks the part too. The AAA figured maple veneer top catches light like liquid fire, while the Vintage Gloss finish provides that perfect aged appearance without looking artificially distressed.

    • AAA Figured Maple Finish: Stunning flame patterns create a visual masterpiece that's as captivating as the tone.
    • Gibson Headstock with Wing Blocks: Classic "open book" headstock design with gold "Les Paul Model" silkscreen.
    • Nickel Hardware: Epiphone Deluxe tuners and historic aluminum Stop Bar bridge complete the vintage aesthetic.
    • Lifton-Inspired Case: Brown hardshell case with pink plush lining protects your investment in style.
