The Epiphone 1960 Les Paul Standard Reissue captures the look, feel, and tone of one of the most sought-after vintage electric guitars ever produced. The original 1960 Les Paul Standard marked the final year of the legendary “Burst” era before Gibson transitioned to the SG body style in 1961. While closely related to the famed 1959 model, the 1960 version introduced a faster, slimmer neck profile, making it a favorite among players who prefer a more comfortable and agile feel. Today, original examples are among the most collectible guitars in the world, and this carefully crafted Epiphone recreation brings that historic design within reach of modern players.

Built in collaboration with Gibson Custom, this reissue honors the original’s construction and tonal character. A mahogany body paired with a carved maple cap and AAA figured maple veneer delivers the classic Les Paul combination of warmth, sustain, and articulate bite. The USA-made Gibson Custombucker pickups with Alnico 3 magnets are wired with CTS potentiometers, Bumblebee paper-in-oil capacitors, and Switchcraft electronics, providing rich vintage humbucker tones with clarity and dynamic response. From singing lead tones to thick rhythm crunch and smooth blues textures, this guitar captures the unmistakable voice that made Les Paul Standards legendary.

Attention to vintage-correct detail is evident throughout the instrument. A one-piece mahogany neck with a long neck tenon enhances sustain and stability, while the 1960 SlimTaper profile and bound rosewood fingerboard ensure smooth, fast playability across all 22 frets. The classic Iced Tea Burst finish, nickel hardware, and historic-style appointments evoke the iconic look of original Bursts, while a vintage-inspired hardshell case with pink plush interior completes the package. For players seeking authentic Les Paul tone, feel, and heritage without the vintage price tag, the Epiphone 1960 Les Paul Standard Reissue delivers a compelling tribute to one of the greatest electric guitars ever built.
