Epiphone 1959 Les Paul Standard – Factory Burst (w/ Hard Case)

When Epiphone and Gibson™ Custom collaborate, magic happens—and the 1959 Les Paul™ Standard is living proof. Built with painstaking attention to detail and tone, this reissue captures the spirit, feel, and sound of the most revered electric guitar in history. 

From the first glance, the Factory Burst finish and AAA flame maple veneer give off that golden-era glow, while the VOS (Vintage Original Sheen) treatment lends an aged, broken-in charm. Pick it up, and you’re greeted by the ’59 Rounded Medium C neck profile—thick enough for vintage purists, yet comfortably playable for modern hands. Plug in, and the real show begins.
