The '59s Are Back!

After a long wait, the Epiphone 1959 Les Pauls are finally back in stock! These 59s from Epiphone are so great you could be tricked into thinking you are playing a real Gibson! Packed with Gibson pickups, upgraded features & parts, in 2 great finishes with a deluxe case, it's no wonder why these guitars have been so sought after! The first ones we received after they were released by Epiphone all sold before they even got to the shop and now we finally are stocked up for the holidays (for now)!

If you haven't played these guitars yet, swing by the shop and plug one in so you can see how great these Les Pauls really are! Take a look below at the 2 great finishes and the incredible specs!
