Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Custom 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue Golden Poppy Burst w/case

Developed in collaboration with Gibson Custom, the Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Custom 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue brings vintage-inspired craftsmanship and premium components together in an accessible package. This model captures many of the key details that made the original late-'50s Les Pauls so desirable, including a one-piece mahogany neck with a long neck tenon, a carved maple top, and a pair of USA-made Gibson Custombucker pickups.

Finished in Golden Poppy Burst, this reissue features a solid mahogany body with a carved maple cap and AAA figured maple veneer. The Custombucker pickups are paired with CTS potentiometers, Bumblebee paper-in-oil capacitors, and Switchcraft electronics for a classic control response and authentic humbucker tone.
