Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Custom 1960 Les Paul Standard
The legendary 1960 Les Paul Standard is one of the world's most coveted guitars, a holy grail for players and collectors alike. Now, through a landmark collaboration with the Gibson Custom Shop, Epiphone offers a stunning recreation that captures the essence of this historic instrument at an accessible price.
This is the perfect Les Paul for players who love the vintage appeal of the classic '59 but prefer the faster feel of the '60's slimmer neck profile.
The Sound and Feel of a Classic
At the heart of this guitar is the sound that defined a generation. The electronics are meticulously crafted to replicate the warmth, clarity, and bite of the original 1960 models, giving you a truly authentic vintage tonal palette. From smooth, singing leads to chunky, powerful rhythms, this Les Paul delivers.
USA Gibson Custombucker Pickups: These are the real deal — the same acclaimed humbuckers used in Gibson's own Custom Shop reissues. They deliver period-correct PAF-style tones with rich harmonics and incredible touch sensitivity.
Premium Hand-Wired Electronics: The signal path is kept pure with hand-wired CTS potentiometers, a robust Switchcraft toggle switch and output jack, and Luxe Bumblebee paper-in-oil capacitors, ensuring every nuance of your playing is translated with clarity and richness.
1960 SlimTaper Neck Profile: This is the feature that sets the 1960 model apart. The SlimTaper "D" profile is noticeably thinner than the '59, offering a faster, more modern playing experience that many guitarists find incredibly comfortable for both chording and soloing.
Historically Accurate Construction
Every detail has been carefully recreated to preserve the original craftsmanship of the golden era. The design choices go beyond aesthetics, enhancing the guitar’s resonance, sustain, and vintage character, ensuring it sounds as exceptional as it looks.
Solid Mahogany Body and Maple Cap: Following the time-honored recipe, the guitar features a one-piece mahogany body topped with a carved hard maple cap and a stunning AAA flame maple veneer for that iconic 'Burst aesthetic.
One-Piece Mahogany Neck: The one-piece mahogany neck features a long tenon joint, maximizing the transfer of vibrational energy from the neck to the body for incredible sustain and a solid, resonant feel.
Bound Rosewood Fretboard: A classic appointment, the Indian rosewood fretboard offers a smooth, warm playing surface, complemented by traditional mother-of-pearl trapezoid inlays for a timeless look.
A Vintage Aesthetic
From the headstock to the hardware, this instrument looks every bit the part of a prized vintage piece. The Vintage Gloss finish provides the look and feel of a guitar that has been lovingly cared for over decades, striking a perfect balance between a factory-fresh shine and a well-preserved classic.
Gibson "Open Book" Headstock: This Epiphone proudly features the iconic Gibson headstock shape, complete with the period-correct "split diamond" inlay and silkscreened Les Paul model signature.
Aged Nickel Hardware: The hardware, including the ABR-1 style Tune-O-Matic bridge, stop bar tailpiece, and Kluson-style "Double Ring" tuners, features an aged nickel finish that perfectly complements the vintage vibe.
Lifton-Inspired Hardshell Case: Your investment is protected in a vintage-style brown hardshell case with a vibrant pink plush interior, just like the originals from 1960.
A Vintage LP without the Vintage Price Tag
This collaboration between Epiphone and the Gibson Custom Shop has produced an instrument that truly lives up to its lineage. The Epi 1960 Les Paul Standard Reissue delivers the authentic looks, feel, and sound of one of rock and roll's most iconic guitars, making a legendary instrument accessible to a new generation of players.

Great service, great axe!
Everything from ordering to receiving was excellent, high quality. The guitar itself is hands down the best epiphone I’ve ever played and I’ve played a lot of them. Is it a Gibson? No, but for the price difference it punches way above its weight. The case is pretty darn nice too. Im happy and I’m im...

Epiphone has knocked it out
Epiphone has knocked it out of the park with these, the whole Inspired by Gibson Custom line is amazing.
The 1960 Les Paul Reissue has a slim neck but not too thin, the pickups sound incredible. This guitar is already all over an EP that i am working on, haven't put it down since I got it.
