50th Anniversary 1960 Les Paul StandardLes Pauls from 1958-'60 are the most desirable electric guitars on the planet, worshiped by players and sought by collectors everywhere as the "Holy Grail" of vintage instruments. Even within that short three-year time span, however, this legendary rock icon experienced a subtle evolution of specs and features. Epiphone's Ltd Edition 50th Anniversary 1960 Les Paul Standard comes in two distinct variations, therefore, to represent two equally beloved formats of this great guitar within the same year.

Version 1 depicts the early 1960 Les Paul Standard, which mostly carried over the specs of the 1959 Les Paul Standard. As such, it has the'50s rounded "D" neck profile that so many players love on the '59 'Burst that preceded it, and is finished in Heritage Cherry Sunburst. Made in the image of Les Paul Standards from later that same year, Version 3 has the SlimTaper™ "D" profile that Gibson adopted in the early '60s, and is available in either Cherryburst or Heritage Darkburst finishes. Of course both versions are made with all the period-correct details that also helped to make all versions of the 1960 Les Paul Standard certified classics, including the time-tested tonewoods, rock-solid hardware, a flawless and superbly playable set-up, and two of Gibson's most accurate PAF-style humbucking picups with genuine Alnico II magnets.

Add it all together, and either guitar represents one of the closest renditions to the original that you are likely to find, at this price, or any. No surprise the Les Paul Standard was the weapon of choice of Eric Clapton, Paul Kossoff, Jimmy Page, and countless other rock legends.

Production of the Ltd Edition 50th Anniversary 1960 Les Paul Standards is limited to 1,960 worldwide (both versions), so check it out now at your authorized Epiphone dealer, and prepare to ROCK the world!
