Epiphone Les Paul 50s - Goldtop, 2019 - used

This Epi is in fantastic, almost mint condition with only minimal signs of use.

The special feature right from the start: it is a classic Goldtop, but with a pleasantly slim ’60s C-shape neck – so no chunky ’50s baseball bat. The neck feels wonderful in the hand and makes the guitar very comfortable and effortless to play.

The guitar is in its original condition. The factory fretwork, however, was nothing special, even though the frets showed virtually no signs of wear. We therefore carefully leveled, recrowned, and polished the frets and then gave the guitar a thorough setup. It now plays amazingly well.

Tonally, with the Epiphone 57 humbucker at the neck and Epiphone Hot Humbucker at the bridge, it does exactly what you would expect from a good Paula: warm and rounded at the neck, with plenty of punch at the bridge.

At approx. 3.76 kg, it is also pleasantly lightweight for a Les Paul.

A beautiful Goldtop with a slim ’60s neck, excellent condition, and classic Les Paul feel. A really nice piece.
