Epiphone 1960 Les Paul Special B-Stock

Originally introduced in 1955 as a single-cutaway model, the Gibson Les Paul Special quickly became one of the most popular variants in the company's Les Paul lineup. In 1958, it underwent a major redesign with the introduction of the double cutaway, significantly improving access to the upper frets. The subsequent addition of the SlimTaper neck profile in 1960 marked the Les Paul Special's peak, offering enhanced comfort and playability. Developed in close collaboration with the Gibson Custom Shop, the Epiphone 1960 Les Paul Special Double Cut Reissue TV Yellow now gives players an authentic recreation of this iconic guitar. Featuring a solid mahogany body, period-correct vintage specifications, and hand-wired electronics, it captures the unmistakable tone, feel, and character of the original 1960 classic.

From sharp Blues licks to gritty Punk riffs, the 1960 Les Paul Special Double Cut offers an impressive range of tones thanks to its duo of USA Gibson Custom P-90 Soapbar pickups, which respond with precision to every nuance of the guitarist's picking hand and deliver everything from bright, detail-rich twang to thick, raw-sounding overdrive depending on how hard the player "digs in". The straightforward control layout - dedicated volume and tone knobs for each pickup - makes it easy to dial in sounds quickly while playing. The Epiphone 1960 Les Paul Special DC TVY delivers rock-solid reliability on stage, while its compact design, well-balanced weight, and comfortable feel make it ideal for powering through long sets and high-energy performances without fatigue.
