Epiphone 1959 Les Paul Standard Outfit Inspired by Gibson Custom, Factory Burst Overview
The Epiphone 1959 Les Paul Standard Outfit Inspired by Gibson Custom is a true tribute to one of the most legendary electric guitars of all time. Built in collaboration with Gibson Custom, this Les Paul nails the vintage feel and tone with a solid mahogany body, maple top, and a stunning AAA flame maple veneer. The ‘59 Rounded Medium C neck profile and long tenon joint bring incredible resonance and sustain, while the VOS (Vintage Original Sheen) finish adds that well-loved, played-in look straight out of the golden era.
Loaded with USA-made Gibson Custombucker pickups, this guitar sings with rich, dynamic PAF tones that defined rock, blues, and beyond. Premium electronics include CTS pots, 50s wiring, and Mallory capacitors for an authentic vintage response.

And with a vintage-style brown and pink hard case, it’s got the full package to match its legendary status.

Full Description
View Full DescriptionGibson custombuckers for pure PAF tone
Nothing quite matches the warmth, clarity, and bite of a great set of PAF-style pickups, and the Gibson Custombuckers in this Epiphone 1959 Les Paul Standard deliver just that. Wound in the USA to vintage specs, these pickups capture the rich, dynamic character that made the originals legendary. From sweet cleans to roaring overdrive, they respond beautifully to your playing, just like a true late-'50s Les Paul should.
1959 rounded medium C neck for the perfect feel
Les Paul necks from the late ‘50s have an unmistakable feel—substantial yet supremely comfortable. This model nails it with a one-piece mahogany neck carved into a 1959 Rounded Medium C profile. The long tenon construction not only enhances sustain but also improves resonance, making every note bloom with vintage character. If you're after that classic ‘59 grip, this is the one.
VOS finish and vintage-accurate details
Every inch of this guitar is designed to capture the essence of a golden-era Les Paul, right down to the VOS (Vintage Original Sheen) finish. This subtly aged look gives the guitar a played-in, well-loved aesthetic without over-the-top relicing. Add in historically accurate features like the ‘open book’ headstock, non-bevelled pickguard, and period-correct hardware, and you’ve got an instrument that looks like it just stepped out of 1959.
Vintage-style case for the full package
A guitar like this deserves a case to match, and Epiphone has gone all out with a vintage-style brown and pink hard case. Not only does it complete the old-school vibe, but it also keeps your Les Paul safe and sound whether you're heading to a gig, the studio, or just storing it at home. It’s the perfect finishing touch to a guitar that pays homage to one of the most iconic instruments in history.
