Les Paul Main Page | All Les Paul Models
The Epiphone Les Paul is a Gibson-authorized copy of the famous Gibson Les Paul and is positioned as a more affordable version. Early versions Epiphone Les Paul had bolted on necks, flat bodies with a stubby horn and multiple pickup configurations more akin to a superstrat style guitar. The Epiphone Les Paul Standard, which more closely resembles a Gibson Les Paul, was introduced in 1989 and featured a narrow open-book Gibson-style headstock.

Les Paul Commemorative Models
50th Anniversary Les Paul LE
Epiphone commemorates 50 years of Les Paul guitar production with an affordable limited edition 50th Anniversary Les Paul Custom guitar with special artwork highlighting historical moments in Les Paul's career. Based on the top-of-the-line, ebony-finish Custom model, the 50th Anniversary features a montage on the back that includes black-and-white performance photos of LesPaul, with artist renderings of his famous 1952 "Goldtop" model and his homemade "Log" superimposed over the images. In the early 1940s Paul assembled his Log - one of the first electric solidbody guitars, built on a 4-by-4 pine board - in the Epiphone factory, using the two halves of an Epiphone archtop body as the Log's "wings." His famous signature "Goldtop" of 1952 was Gibson's first solidbody electric guitar. |
