The long friendship between Epiphone and Mr. Les Paul began in 1940, when Les built one of the world's first full-body electric guitars while working nights at the first Epiphone
in Manhattan. Les' first full-body guitar, nicknamed the Log, would inspire the Les Paul Standard, which many consider to be the greatest electric guitar ever made.
The 50s Les Paul Standard models are part of Epiphone's new "Inspired by Gibson" collection and recreate the sound of the 50s Les Pauls. They feature a classic mahogany body with a maple top and 'a mahogany neck with a long neck tenon. Powered by ProBucker™ humbuckers with 50s-style wiring and CTS electronics.
