[b] [b]A High-Performance Tribute to 50 Years of a Legendary Standard[/b][/b]

[color=#4D4D4D][font=verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=2]To honor Les Paul’s innovations of so many years ago, Epiphone unveils the Tribute Les Paul Standard, a guitar that embodies Les Paul’s original vision, while offering several constructional and performance upgrades to suit the needs and expectations of today’s demanding players. Way back in the 1940s Les would visit the Epiphone factory on 14th Street in New York to work on his famous prototype of the solidbody electric guitar, the “Log”. The Tribute Les Paul Standard presents the culmination of Les Paul’s own dreams for the ultimate solidbody electric guitar, all wrapped up in an instrument that is still one of the most versatile and powerful guitars available today.

[b]Authentic Features[/b][/size][/font][/color]

[color=#4D4D4D][font=verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=2]The Tribute Les Paul Standard begins with the same successful recipe as the classic Les Paul Standard, the most desirable guitar on the planet, but Epiphone significantly "steps it up" on this tribute model. The guitar features historically accurate details such as the wider and more bend-friendly frets that arrived in 1959, an authentic non-chambered solid mahogany back and carved maple top, and a one-piece mahogany neck with tone-enhancing long neck tenon.[/size][/font][/color]

[color=#4D4D4D][font=verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=2]To maximize the tonal potential of these top-notch constructional features, [u]the Tribute Les Paul Standard carries a pair of Gibson USA’s highly acclaimed 57 Classic humbucking pickups. With "Patent Applied For" decals on their base plates, the '57 Classic in the neck position and '57 Classic Plus in the bridge are faithful replicas of the famous Gibson PAF humbuckers that helped define the music of the late 1950s[/u]. The '57 Classic gives a tone that is warm and subtle with full, even response that doesn't hold back when you need that classic Gibson humbucker crunch. The '57 Classic Plus is the perfect bridge pickup and mimics humbuckers of that era that received a few extra turns of wire.

But this guitar is not just about recreating the "old"; it's also about looking ahead... just as Les himself continued to do throughout his lifetime. [u]Using 4-conductor pickup wiring, Epiphone has added two push/pull tone pots to allow for series/parallel pickup switching[/u]. The result is a Les Paul with all the standard sounds plus a huge palette of tonal possibilities at your fingertips.

[b]Premium Components[/b][/size][/font][/color]

[color=#4D4D4D][font=verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=2]On top of all these features, the Tribute Les Paul Standard is loaded with premium components to maximize its tone and playability. [u]A US-made Switchcraft™ 3-way toggle selector, Mallory-150 tone capacitors, Epiphone StrapLocks, 16:1 ratio premium Grover™ locking tuners, and tight fitting Epiphone Locktone™ Tune-o-matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece all help to insure this guitar is locked and loaded[/u], and solid as a rock.

[u]The Tribute Les Paul Standard comes protected in a premium Epiphone hardcase[/u][/size][/font][/color]
