Fewer than 600 Standards left Kalamazoo that year, and originals now trade for figures that make houses look affordable. Epiphone's Inspired by Gibson Custom 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue is built to chase that spec sheet as closely as the price point allows — and the spec sheet is genuinely impressive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe mahogany body carries a carved maple cap topped with a AAA flamed maple veneer, and the one-piece mahogany neck uses a long tenon joint and an authentic 1959 Rounded Medium C profile — the beefier neck that a lot of players prefer over the slimmer '60s alternatives. The bound rosewood fretboard features mother-of-pearl trapezoid inlays, and even the side dots are sized and positioned to match the originals. The Gibson-style open book headstock carries the Epiphone logo and \"Les Paul Model\" silkscreen in gold, both in historically accurate placement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eElectronics are where this guitar really earns its keep: a pair of USA-made Gibson Custombucker humbuckers with Alnico 3 magnets, hand-wired to CTS potentiometers, Black Beauty paper-in-oil capacitors, and Switchcraft switching and output. The Vintage Gloss finish gives it a lacquer-like appearance without looking artificially aged. Nickel hardware, Epiphone Deluxe single ring Keystone button tuners, an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, and a Gibson Historic Reissue aluminum stop bar tailpiece round things out. Ships in a brown hardshell case with a pink plush interior and Inspired by Gibson Custom graphics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBody: Mahogany with Maple Top and AAA Figured Maple Veneer\u003cbr\u003eBody Finish: Vintage Gloss\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Single-ply Cream, Top and Fretboard\u003cbr\u003eNeck: One Piece Mahogany\u003cbr\u003eNeck Profile: 1959 Rounded Medium C\u003cbr\u003eNeck Finish: Satin Urethane\u003cbr\u003eNeck Joint: Glued In, Set Neck, Long Tenon\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard: Rosewood\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Radius: 12\"\u003cbr\u003eScale Length: 24.75\"\u003cbr\u003eFrets: 22, Medium Jumbo\u003cbr\u003eNut: Graph Tech, 1.69\" width\u003cbr\u003eInlays: Mother of Pearl Trapezoid\u003cbr\u003eHeadstock: Gibson Open Book\u003cbr\u003eHeadstock Inlay: Epiphone Logo in Aged Mother of Pearl; \"Les Paul Model\" Gold Silkscreen\u003cbr\u003eNeck Pickup: Gibson Custombucker (Alnico 3)\u003cbr\u003eBridge Pickup: Gibson Custombucker (Alnico 3)\u003cbr\u003eControls: 2 Volume, 2 Tone; CTS Potentiometers, Black Beauty Paper-in-Oil Capacitors\u003cbr\u003ePickup Selector: Switchcraft 3-way Toggle\u003cbr\u003eOutput Jack: Switchcraft 1\/4\"\u003cbr\u003eBridge: ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic\u003cbr\u003eTailpiece: Gibson Historic Reissue Aluminum Stop Bar\u003cbr\u003eHardware Finish: Nickel\u003cbr\u003eTuners: Epiphone Deluxe with Single Ring Keystone Button\u003cbr\u003ePickguard: 1-ply Cream\u003cbr\u003eControl Knobs: Gold Top Hat with Dial Pointer\u003cbr\u003eStrings: .010, .013, .017, .026, .036, .046\u003cbr\u003eCase: Brown Hardshell with Pink Interior and Inspired by Gibson Custom Graphic\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Epiphone","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52569297813816,"sku":"210000029738","price":1899.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0255\/2712\/4002\/files\/bcq8u9yhsa1mohwbwubw.jpg?v=1782426888","url":"https:\/\/guitarworks.ca\/products\/epiphone-inspired-by-gibson-custom-1959-les-paul-standard-reissue-dark-burst-w-case","provider":"Guitarworks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
