Product Description

Bringing back the true essence of vintage guitars, the Les Paul Standard '50s boasts retro flair in the bucketloads. Epiphone's "Inspired by Gibson" collection takes iconic features and advanced construction techniques and applies them to genuinely accessible instruments.

Construction

Incredibly accurate to the original "Golden Era" design, the Standard '50s is made using a trusty Mahogany body and neck combination with a Maple cap displaying the wood grain. Any guitarist's dream.

The neck is shaped into a '59 rounded medium "C" – styled after the legendary Les Paul and famed for its playing comfort. Paired with the 12" fingerboard radius and medium jumbo frets, the Standard '50s provides the classic feel of the earliest Les Paul models. Hardware specs include a LockTone ABR bridge and 18:1 ratio tuners for admirable stability.

Sound

Not only does the Standard '50s come equipped with the excellent PAF-inspired ProBucker 1 and 2 humbucking duo, but it uses '50s-style wiring techniques to get the full flavour of the pickups. Smooth, hum-free tone with an instantly recognisable warm low-end and sweet sustain. The bridge ProBucker 2 is slightly overwound for extra attack and sounds great through crunchy levels of gain, while its neck counterpart takes a softer touch.

Mr James Duckett12th Jan 2022

Amazing guitar for the price. Was expecting it to need further set up but straight out of the box the action, intonation and playability were great. Build quality was surprisingly good, it looks great and not a single flaw in any of the body work. Oh, and it sounds awesome.

Mr Andrew Wilson9th Nov 2020

As a budget guitar you should expect the fret board finish to be average, which it was. However, I polished the frets and now it plays beautifully. The intonation and action required no adjustment at all, which is good.

Excellent value for money! The gold top finish is just stunning. The guitar feels and sounds like a true vintage Gibson!
