Epiphone Les Paul Standard 50s Figured Washed Cherry Sunburst IBG

Revisited Icon in the Lineage of the "Bursts"

Positioned at the heart of the "Inspired by Gibson" range, the Les Paul Standard 50s Figured embraces the codes that shaped the sound of decades of rock and blues: cream binding, Kalamazoo-style headstock, and a figured top highlighted by the "Washed Cherry Sunburst" finish. It combines Golden Era looks with modern reliability for an authentic playing experience.

For Which Guitarist and Styles?

Designed for ambitious beginner to intermediate/advanced musicians, this electric guitar offers the feel of a traditional Les Paul. Versatile, it excels in blues, classic rock, and hard rock, while also feeling comfortable in jazz and pop thanks to its singing midrange, warmth, and dynamic response under the fingers.

Sound

The mahogany (body and neck) / maple (cap) duo delivers dense lows, creamy mids, and precise attack. The ProBucker 1 & 2 capture the PAF character: round and enveloping neck pickup, sharper bridge pickup to cut through the mix. The 50s wiring with CTS pots preserves the highs when lowering the volume, while the long tenon and LockTone hardware boost sustain and stability. The 3-position selector covers everything from velvety clean to vintage crunch and biting lead tones.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

To maintain the original balance, choose nickel strings 10-46 (scale length 24.75" / 628.6 mm). A Les Paul-style hard case will secure your travels in addition to the included gig bag. A 1/4" jack cable with straight-to-right-angle connectors will ease routing under the bridge and preserve the connection.
