Epiphone Les Paul Standard '50s Electric Guitar Metallic Gold

The Epiphone Les Paul Standard ’50s model is part of the “Inspired by Gibson” collection. With a mahogany body, maple top, set neck with block inlays and dual ProBucker pickups, this Standard looks like a time-traveler from Kalamazoo, straight from '58. If you want a vintage ’Paul without the exorbitant price, the Epiphone Les Paul Standard cops the vibe and sound and may become your day-to-day player. 

The Les Paul Standard '50s: powered by ProBuckers

Epiphone’s ProBucker pickups are based on the most sought-after humbuckers in Gibson’s history—the mighty “Patent Applied For.” The Les Paul Standard ’50s features two ProBuckers with a similar warm and fat tone.

Epiphone’s Neck and updated Headstock

The mahogany neck is set with a long tenon joint for increased sustain. It has a ’59 rounded medium C-profile—if you prefer a slightly thicker neck that’s not a baseball bat, you’ll feel right at home. The updated headstock gives the ’50s Les Paul Standard a new identity that fits with its vintage styling. The Epiphone logo is inlayed with mother of pearl.

Other ’50’s specs from Epiphone

The Les Paul Standard utilizes ’50s-style wiring, dual volume and tone controls with gold top hat knobs, trapezoid fret markers and vintage deluxe tuners.

The Les Paul Standard ’50s is the Epiphone to get for vintage style and sound.

Over the past 6 decades, the Les Paul Standard has reached iconic status, and for good reason. If you want a killer-looking ’Paul with vintage features, the Epiphone Les Paul Standard ’50s is a winner.
