Epiphone 1960 Les Paul Special Double Cut Reissue Electric Guitar, TV Yellow
There's always room for a double-cutaway Les Paul, so enter the Epiphone 1960 Les Paul Special Double Cut Reissue. Throwing back to Gibson's 1950s – a fruitful time for electric guitar design – the Les Paul Special originally debuted in 1955 as a single-cutaway model with P-90 single-coil pickups as an enhanced version of Gibson's Les Paul Junior student model. Generations pass, the Special takes on a life of its own, and here we are with this Epiphone "Inspired by Gibson Custom" model.
The Epiphone 1960 Les Paul Special Double Cut Reissue joins in on Epiphone's "Inspired by Gibson Custom" series with authentic, vintage-inspired specifications sure to make Special fans swoon. This all begins, however, with a slab mahogany body shaped in Gibson's double-cutaway Les Paul Special shape. Throwing back to the shift made in 1958 from single to double-cutaway, this body is sleek and mobile for any playing scenario.
From here, a one-piece mahogany neck assumes Gibson's speedier 60s SlimTaper profile. A rosewood fingerboard bearing twenty-two Medium Jumbo frets joins in for fast fretting across the full scale length – made only more comfortable by the double-cutaway frame. The fingerboard's twelve-inch radius streamlines playing only further while Mother-of-Pearl dot inlays add to the classy and classic visual presentation.
While bringing speed to the equation, this Les Paul Special's body is met with heat and kick from its pair of USA-made P-90 Soapbar pickups from Gibson Custom themselves. Bright, punchy, and versatile, these P-90s play with all the authentic kick you expect from a double-cut such as this. These P-90s also hold the distinction of being hand-wired to CTS potentiometers and Bumblebee paper-in-oil capacitors for authentic vintage tones and flexible and varied tonal mixing.
The hardware setup on this 1960 Les Paul Special Double Cut also gives you quite a bit to write home about. A historic-style aluminum Wraparound bridge with intonation adjustment screws lands for solidly anchoring strings. Enabling a playing experience that is both sturdy and fluid, this bridge is a reliable piece to build upon the whole guitar. A GraphTech nut and Epiphone Deluxe Three on a Plate tuning machines with white buttons meet past the Gibson-style "open book" headstock for quick and easy stringing. An included Epiphone brown hardshell case travels with this Les Paul Special Double Cut Reissue.
As a testament to the lasting influence of Gibson's Les Paul Special, this "Inspired by Gibson Custom" series model is everything you could need to take part in the model's legacy. A Les Paul Special? Yeah, we'd think so too.
