The Epiphone Les Paul Standard 50s Goldtop is a loving tribute to the legendary Les Paul guitars of the 1950s. It embodies the classic design, the typical sound and the playing feel that has inspired generations of guitarists. Epiphone's close association with Les Paul himself began back in the 1940s, when the visionary guitar pioneer designed his first solidbody guitars in the Epiphone workshops. This collaboration ultimately led to the development of the Les Paul Standard, one of the most famous electric guitars in history. With the Les Paul Standard 50s in goldtop finish, Epiphone brings back the vintage look and tones of the 50s and offers musicians affordable access to the iconic Les Paul.
Epiphone has been one of the most important names in the guitar world for decades and is particularly known for producing high-quality replicas of Gibson models. With the Les Paul Standard 50s Goldtop, Epiphone offers an electric guitar that is both visually and sonically reminiscent of the glorious 50s. This guitar from the "Inspired by Gibson™" series is designed for guitarists who are looking for the authentic Les Paul feel without sacrificing modern handling and affordability.
The Epiphone Les Paul Standard 50s Goldtop offers high-quality materials and first-class technical features that maximize the playing experience and sound quality:
Mahogany body and maple top: the body of the Les Paul Standard 50s is made of resonant mahogany, which is known for its warm, rich sound characteristics and supports the sustain that guitarists appreciate on Les Paul models. The maple top gives the sound added clarity and defines the overtones that come through particularly well in the band mix. The iconic metallic gold finish of the gold top gives the guitar a classic aesthetic that immediately catches the eye.
Mahogany neck with 50s profile and long-neck tenon: The neck is also made of mahogany and is shaped in the classic "50s Rounded Medium C" profile, which is known for its grip and comfortable handling. This shape is ideal for guitarists who prefer a fuller neck profile. The long-neck tenon, which anchors the neck deep in the body, provides more stability and improves sustain. The glued joint and single ply binding round off the high-quality look.
Fingerboard made of Indian Laurel with trapezoid inlays: The fingerboard is made of Indian Laurel and features classic trapezoid inlays reminiscent of the design of the original Les Pauls. With a radius of 12 inches (304.8 mm) and 22 medium jumbo frets, it offers a comfortable playing surface that allows chords in the lower range and fast solos in the upper range alike.
ProBucker™ humbuckers for classic Les Paul sound: The Les Paul Standard 50s is equipped with two Epiphone ProBucker™ pickups that authentically capture the warm, powerful sound of the 50s. The ProBucker™ 1 on the neck provides round, smooth tones, while the ProBucker™ 2 on the bridge is suitable for assertive lead sounds. These pickups offer tremendous versatility and cover a wide range of sounds, from blues and rock to modern genres.
50s wiring with CTS® potentiometers and treble-bleed circuitry: The electronics of the Les Paul Standard 50s are designed according to the classic 50s wiring, which supports the typical vintage sound of the Les Paul. Thanks to the high-quality CTS® potentiometers, the volume and tone can be precisely adjusted. The treble bleed circuit ensures that the treble is retained even when the volume is reduced and the sound does not lose clarity.
Epiphone Vintage Deluxe tuners and LockTone™ Tune-O-Matic™ bridge: The Vintage Deluxe tuners with a transmission ratio of 18:1 offer a precise and stable tuning position that is ready for any stage situation. The LockTone™ Tune-O-Matic™ bridge in combination with the GraphTech® NuBone® nut guarantees excellent sustain and reliable intonation. The nickel-look hardware gives the guitar an elegant vintage look.
The Epiphone Les Paul Standard 50s Goldtop brings back the style and sound of the iconic Les Paul guitars of the 50s. With its mahogany body, maple top and powerful ProBucker™ pickups, it offers everything guitarists appreciate about a classic Les Paul.
