The Les Paul Special, taken to the next level
The Gibson Les Paul™ Special was designed as an enhanced version of the Les Paul Junior, featuring two P-90 pickups compared to the Junior’s single P-90 pickup for increased sonic flexibility. It also added fretboard binding and a mother-of-pearl headstock logo, giving it a bit more visual appeal as well and creating an intermediate model that sat between the fancier Les Paul Standard and the Les Paul Junior in the product lineup. The Les Paul Special was first released as a single-cutaway model in 1955, but by 1958, it had transitioned to a double-cutaway body, offering improved access to the upper range of the fretboard. A change to a thinner SlimTaper™ neck profile and lower rhythm pickup positioning in 1960 brought improved neck stability and made it easier to play than ever.

  • CASE/GIG BAG: Gig Bag Included.

Now, Epiphone is proud to introduce the Epiphone Les Paul Special Double Cut Figured. It retains all the features that make the Les Paul Special eminently playable and elevates its visual appeal to the next level. It features a Les Paul Special double cutaway mahogany body and caps it with a beautiful AAA figured maple veneer. Additionally, the top is also bound. The mahogany neck has a fast-playing SlimTaper profile and is topped with a bound rosewood fretboard that is equipped with 22 medium jumbo frets and adorned with acrylic dot position marker inlays. The 60s Kalamazoo headstock is outfitted with Grover® Rotomatic® tuners and features the Epiphone logo inlaid in mother-of-pearl. The electronics are also different than what you’ll find on most Les Paul Specials. Instead of the usual P-90 single coil pickups, the Les Paul Special Double Cut Figured is equipped with a pair of Epiphone’s acclaimed ProBucker™ humbucking pickups, with a ProBucker 2 in the neck position and a slightly hotter ProBucker 3 in the bridge position for blistering solos. Both pickups are wired to individual volume and tone controls, along with a three-way toggle switch for excellent tonal control and versatility.

At Easy Music Center, we care for our instruments from the moment they arrive to when they ship to your door. All instruments are stored in a climate controlled environment and put through a 12-point inspection checklist before being shipped.

First, we check the finish of the instrument, carefully inspecting any blemishes on the surface. Next, we check the playability and setup by inspecting and adjusting the truss rod (if available), bridge, nut, and frets to manufacturer factory specifications. Any request made outside of manufacturer factory specifications can incur additional charges for parts and labor. If the instrument has electronics, we test all of the electronic components to make sure they are functioning properly.

After a thorough inspection, we then move on to maintenance. We start by lubricating any moving parts on the instrument, such as tuning machines. We then move on to cleaning and oiling the fretboard along with the frets.

Once maintenance is done, we stretch and tune the strings and play test the instrument. After this, we do a final inspection and clean/detail the instrument before packing it up for shipment.

We’re excited to be a part of your instrument buying experience.
