Joe Bonamassa is widely renowned for his guitar-playing prowess and as a world-class guitar
collector. One prized gem in his collection is his 1959 Gibson LesPaul Custom. The original
Les Paul Custom came to be known as the “Black Beauty,” and examples from the late 50s are
highly sought after, but this particular guitar is quite unique. Joe’s guitar is a rare custom order
with two pickups instead of the standard three-pickup configuration. Adding to its allure, it also
sports Grover® Imperial™ tuners and a Bigsby® vibrato tailpiece.The Epiphone Joe
Bonamassa 1959 Les Paul Custom faithfully recreates this exceptional guitar for players
everywhere to enjoy and at an accessible price. It has an Antique Ebony finish over its
all-mahogany body, which features aged multi-ply binding on the top and back. The mahogany
neck has a 1959 Rounded Medium C profile and is topped with a bound ebony fretboard that is
equipped with 22 medium jumbo frets and dressed up with pearloid block position marker
inlays. The multi-ply bound 60s Kalamazoo-style headstock features the Epiphone logo and the
iconic Custom Split Diamond inlay in mother of pearl and is outfitted with a low-friction Graph
Tech® nut for excellent tuning stability. The Joe Bonamassa ’59 Les Paul Custom is powered
by a pair of punchy-sounding Epiphone ProBucker™ Custom pickups that are wired to
individual volume and tone controls that use high-quality CTS® potentiometersfor outstanding
reliability and tonal versatility. As is fitting for a Les Paul Custom, the hardware is gold,
including a LockTone™ Tune-O-Matic™ bridge, the Grover tuners, and the Bigsby B70 vibrato
tailpiece. The combination of these elements creates an instrument that is not only visually
stunning but also remarkably versatile in its sound. The Epiphone Joe Bonamassa ’59 Les Paul
Custom comes with a certificate of authenticity and a hardshell case with “Nerdville” graphics.
This limited edition Epiphone Joe Bonamassa ’59 Les Paul Custom is a tribute to a legendary
guitarist and an iconic guitar and represents both a lasting investment and excellence in
musical instrument craftsmanship!
