2003 Epiphone Les Paul Standard
Summary: Epiphone’s long friendship with Les Paul began in 1940 when Les built one of the world’s first solid body electric guitars while working nights at the original Epiphone factory in Manhattan. Les’ first solid body guitar nicknamed “the Log,” would go on to inspire the Les Paul Standard, which many consider the greatest electric guitar ever made. This guitar is crafted with a mahogany body, maple cap, bound mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard with classic trapezoid inlays, keystone tuners, and a pair of Epiphone humbuckers.
