Epiphone Les Paul Standard 60s Iced Tea Burst

The Epiphone Les Paul Standard 60s in Iced Tea Burst is Epiphone's faithful recreation of the early-1960s Les Paul, built as part of the Inspired by Gibson Collection and tracing its lineage straight back to Les Paul himself, who built one of the world's first solidbody electrics on the night shift at Epiphone's original Manhattan factory. This example pairs a mahogany body and maple cap with an AAA flame maple veneer top, visible right through the translucent Iced Tea Burst finish for the classic flame-top look, framed by cream body binding and a matching cream pickguard. At 8.82 lbs., it carries the weight and resonance of a traditional Les Paul without tipping into overly heavy territory, giving players the vintage Standard experience at a fraction of the cost of an original.

The set-neck mahogany neck is carved to a 60s Rounded C profile (.820" at the 1st fret, .955" at the 12th), a slimmer, fast-playing shape than a vintage '50s neck while still filling the hand through chords and bends. A laurel fretboard with pearloid trapezoid inlays and cream binding runs a 12" radius, 22 medium jumbo frets, and a 24.75" scale length with a 1.692" GraphTech nut, delivering the shorter-scale warmth and easy string bending Les Pauls are known for. Epiphone Deluxe vintage-style tuners in nickel keep tuning stable, while a Tune-O-Matic bridge and stop-bar tailpiece deliver the sustain and direct string-to-body coupling that define the Les Paul's voice.

Electronics pair Epiphone's ProBucker humbuckers, each wired to its own dedicated volume and tone control with CTS potentiometers for independent shaping of both pickups, plus a 3-way toggle to switch between them. Expect the ProBucker set to deliver everything from warm, vocal neck-position leads to a growling, cutting bridge tone built for rock and blues rhythm work. Whether you're a classic rock player chasing that vintage Les Paul roar, a blues or Americana guitarist who wants humbucker warmth without the vintage price tag, or a collector building out an Inspired by Gibson lineup, this Iced Tea Burst Standard 60s delivers the look and feel of the real thing.
