Paying tribute to the original sunburst Les Paul guitars released by Gibson between 1958 and 1960, the Epiphone Limited Edition 1959 Les Paul Standard Outfit rocks the classic styling that has come to define the instrument. A rosewood fingerboard adorns the '50s-style neck, while the flamed maple top resonates with the 'solid body' tone Les Pauls have become known for. Two Gibson BurstBucker humbuckers and a tune-o-matic bridge round out what is a quality guitar from its Kalamazoo headstock to stopbar tailpiece.
