Epiphone 1960 Les Paul Standard Reissue Washed Cherry

The Epiphone 1960 Les Paul Standard Reissue Washed Cherry, combining the slimmer '60s neck with Gibson USA Custombuckers and a classic and timeless cherry finish

The difference between the '59 and the '60 Les Paul Standard is subtle but immediately noticeable to the player: the Slim Taper '60s C-neck is slightly thinner and plays a bit faster than the fuller '59-profile. For guitarists who prioritize comfort and speed, the '60 reissue is the better choice, without compromising on tone quality. In Washed Cherry, the figured maple top acquires a warmth that perfectly matches the instrument's character.

The Gibson USA Custombuckers are the pickups that Gibson reserves for its historic reissues: open, dynamic, and with the PAF response that gives a vintage Les Paul its identity. Washed Cherry on a figured maple top reveals the wood grain through a warm red burst gradient that is not overstated. The VOS finish subtly mutes the lacquer for a nuanced, vintage appearance that suits the character of this instrument.

Mahogany body with figured maple top in Washed Cherry, mahogany neck with Slim Taper '60s C-profile, rosewood fretboard with aged MOP Trapezoid inlays and 22 frets on a 24.75" scale, Grover Rotomatic 18:1 tuners, LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge, and aged hardware. Includes hardshell case.

The 1960 Les Paul Standard Reissue Washed Cherry is for the guitarist who knows that the right neck profile makes all the difference.
