EpiphoneLes Paul Standard '50s Electric Guitar - Metallic Gold

Step into the sound and feel that defined a generation of electric guitars. Tonally speaking, a pair of Epiphone P-90 PRO soapbar pickups and 3-way toggle switch are the focal point, delivering the raw clarity and midrange bite that shaped early Les Paul tone. It all adds up to a guitar with an expressive voice that responds naturally to touch and dynamics while capturing the spirit of the original ’50s-era instruments. Classic Les Paul Construction With Vintage-Era Feel The foundation of the Les Paul Standard ’50s starts with a mahogany body topped with maple, delivering the rich midrange punch and articulate clarity that define the Les Paul voice. A mahogany neck with a 1959 Rounded Medium C profile offers a substantial, comfortable grip that feels broken-in from the first chord while the long neck tenon enhances stability and sustain. Together, these elements recreate the solid, resonant feel players expect from a traditional ’50s-style Les Paul. P-90 PRO Soapbar Pickups Deliver Vintage Bite and Clarity At the heart of this guitar’s voice is a pair of Epiphone P-90 PRO soapbar pickups. Known for their raw edge, clarity and dynamic response, these pickups bridge the gap between single-coil articulation and humbucker thickness. Augmented by a 3-way toggle switch and wired with CTS potentiometers and traditional ’50s-style wiring, they respond naturally to picking dynamics and volume adjustments, making them ideal for everything from clean blues tones to gritty overdrive. Rosewood Fingerboard With Traditional Appointments A rosewood fingerboard with pearloid trapezoid inlays reinforces the guitar’s vintage aesthetic while providing a smooth, responsive playing surface. Medium-jumbo frets support confident bends and articulate vibrato across the 24.75" scale length, making the instrument equally comfortable for chord work and lead lines. The familiar Kalamazoo-style headstock completes the classic look while maintaining Epiphone’s attention to detail. Road-Ready Hardware With Classic Functionality Reliable performance comes from Epiphone’s LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge and LockTone stop bar tailpiece, which help maximize sustain and keep intonation solid. Vintage Deluxe tuners and a Graph Tech nut contribute to stable tuning during long sessions or live performances, while gold Top Hat knobs with dial pointers complete the period-correct control layout. A Timeless Instrument Built for Today’s Players Finished with vintage-inspired details and supplied with a premium gig bag, the Epiphone Les Paul Standard ’50s electric guitar delivers the essence of a legendary design in a form that today’s players can confidently rely on. Whether you’re chasing classic tones or discovering the Les Paul feel for the first time, this guitar offers an authentic, inspiring connection to one of the most enduring sounds in electric guitar history.
