Vintage Style Construction

This stunning guitar has been made in partnership with the Gibson Custom Shop, and helps recreate the awe-inspiring, PAF-laden Les Pauls of the late 1950s.

Featuring a solid Mahogany back piece, with a carved Maple Cap and AAA Figured Maple Veneer adorned with an Aged Dark Burst finish, this guitar exudes Gibson style and class from every pore.

Gibson USA Pickups

No vintage-style Les Paul would be complete without the appropriate pickups to deliver those classic PAF-like tones – which is exactly why Epiphone have fitted this guitar with a set of Burstbucker pickups.

These Gibson-made pickups are complimented by the inclusion of a Switchcraft selector switch and output jack, CTS pots, 50s era wiring, and Mallory capacitors, to make the vintage playing experience even more authentic.
