EpiphoneLes Paul Standard 50s Electric Guitar - Washed Cherry Sunburst

For players chasing the feel and balance that defined the original Les Paul Standard, the Epiphone Les Paul Standard 50s offers a faithful and accessible take on a landmark design. Part of Epiphone’s Inspired by Gibson collection, this model follows classic construction with a mahogany body capped by maple, shaping a voice that blends warm midrange punch with clear articulation. A 1959 Rounded Medium C neck profile with a long tenon adds stability and sustain, delivering a solid response that suits expressive leads and full, supportive rhythm work. Mahogany Body and Maple Cap Shape Classic Les Paul Tone The pairing of a mahogany body and maple cap sits at the heart of the Les Paul Standard sound. Mahogany contributes warmth and depth while the maple top adds definition and bite, helping notes remain articulate in a mix. Together, they create a balanced voice that works equally well for clean passages, edge-of-breakup textures, and driven tones. ProBucker Pickups Capture Vintage Humbucker Character A ProBucker 1 in the neck position and a slightly hotter ProBucker 2 in the bridge recreate the clarity and response associated with classic 1950s humbuckers. Wired to CTS potentiometers using vintage-style 50s wiring, these pickups retain definition as you adjust volume and tone. The result is a wide range of usable sounds, from smooth rhythm parts to singing lead lines. Rounded Medium C Neck Supports Comfort and Resonance The mahogany neck features a 1959 Rounded Medium C profile that fills the hand without feeling bulky. A long neck tenon enhances resonance and structural stability, while the rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets supports smooth bends and accurate fretting. The overall feel remains familiar and comfortable during extended playing sessions. Dependable Hardware Anchors Performance LockTone Tune-O-Matic and Stop Bar hardware help secure the strings for consistent sustain and dependable intonation. Vintage Deluxe tuners and a Graph Tech nut contribute to stable tuning, while gold Top Hat knobs with dial pointers make adjustments clear and precise. Nickel hardware and single-ply binding complete the instrument with durability and classic visual detail.
