Epiphone Les Paul Standard 50s Figured LH Washed Cherry Sunburst IBG

A Flamed Standard '50s That Extends the Legend

This left-handed Les Paul follows the lineage of models that defined the sound of rock, blues, and modern jazz. Cream binding, Kalamazoo-style headstock, and the superb "Washed Cherry Sunburst" finish create a timeless look. Within the Epiphone range, it stands as the most authentic interpretation of the Les Paul '50s DNA, with luthiery and electronics choices designed to replicate the behavior of the originals while remaining accessible.

For Which Guitarist and Styles?

Ideal for left-handers ranging from ambitious beginners to intermediate/advanced players seeking a traditional Les Paul, it excels in blues, classic rock, and hard rock. Its warmth and singing mids also allow for smooth jazz or pop tones, both clean and with light crunch. The comfort of the 1959 profile and the balance of the mahogany body make it a very versatile stage and studio companion.

Sound

The combination of mahogany (body/neck) + maple (cap) delivers rich lows, creamy mids, and focused highs. The neck ProBucker 1 provides a round, enveloping PAF-style tone, while the bridge ProBucker 2 offers attack, presence, and perfect bite to cut through the mix. The 50s wiring paired with CTS pots preserves brightness when lowering the volume, and the long tenon with LockTone hardware maximizes sustain and stability. The 3-position selector covers everything from velvety cleans to vintage saturations and incisive leads.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

To maintain the original feel, choose nickel strings 10-46 suitable for the 24.75" / 628.6 mm scale length. A Les Paul-style hard case will protect the instrument during regular transport, complementing the included gig bag. Add a comfortable strap and a 6-string electric guitar capo. A 1/4" jack cable with straight-to-right-angle connectors will facilitate discreet routing under the bridge.
