Epiphone | Joe Bonamassa Signature "Lazarus" LES PAUL
Bonamassa's Rare Burst Rises From The Ashes Once Again In A Spot-In Reissue
Joe Bonamassa teams up with Epiphone once more to release the Epiphone Joe Bonamassa Signature "Lazarus" 1959 LP Standard, a spot-on replica of his 1959 Les Paul Standard.
The stuff of legend, "Lazarus" was discovered on one of Bonamassa's "guitar safaris," poorly kept and refinished in red paint. After painstaking restoration, the guitar's original figured maple top shines like new.
To recreate this stunning transformation, Epiphone outfits the Joe Bonamassa Signature "Lazarus" 1959 LP Standard with an AAAA-grade flame maple veneer over a mahogany body with a maple cap, rounding it out with dual BurstBucker pickups, '50s-style wiring with CTS potentiometers and Mallory capacitors, and a vintage-style case emblazoned with Bonamassa graphics.
For a piece of history that's here to stay, preorder your Joe Bonamassa Signature "Lazarus" 1959 LP Standard now.

Originally hailed as "Limed Mahogany" in Gibson catalogues, this classic finish was also allegedly renamed after TV sets themselves, as this yellowish hue of otherwise dark mahogany wood was commonplace on midcentury furniture.
