An enhanced version of the Les Paul Junior with increased sonic flexibility, it featured two P-90 pickups instead of the single P-90 found on the Junior and also added a bit of extra bling in the form of a bound fretboard and a mother-of-pearl headstock logo. In 1958, the body shape was revised from a single cutaway to a double cutaway, which delivered improved fretboard access, and the Special hit its stride in 1960 when a thinner SlimTaper™ neck profile and a lower neck pickup placement made it more robust and easier to play than ever.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eNow, Epiphone, in partnership with Gibson Custom, is proud to introduce the 1960 Les Paul Special Double Cut Reissue, an Inspired by Gibson Custom recreation of the sought-after 1960 Les Paul Special Double Cut. Like the originals, it features a slab mahogany body with double cutaways that provide excellent access to the entire length of the fretboard. The one-piece mahogany neck has a fast-playing 60s SlimTaper profile and is capped with a rosewood fretboard with 22 medium jumbo frets and mother-of-pearl dot position marker inlays. The fretboard has a 12\" radius that makes playing first-position chords and solos with string bends further up the neck equally effortless. The Gibson \"open book\" style headstock is equipped with Epiphone Deluxe three-on-a-plate tuners with white buttons and a Graph Tech® nut to help keep the tuning stable, while a historic style Wraparound bridge with intonation screws solidly anchors the strings at the other end and contributes to the excellent sustain that the Les Paul Special is famous for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eA pair of USA-made P-90 Soapbar pickups from Gibson Custom that can go from sweet and clean to outright nasty and dirty sounding are hand-wired to individual volume and tone controls with high-quality CTS® potentiometers and Bumblebee paper-in-oil capacitors for authentic vintage tones that are sure to please even the most tone-conscious players. The 1960 Les Paul Special Double Cut Reissue comes packaged in a vintage-style case with a brown exterior and pink plush interior that features Inspired by Gibson Custom graphics on the exterior. It all comes together to deliver a vintage playing and ownership experience at an accessible price that is Special in every way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eBody\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ul1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li4\"\u003eShape: Les Paul\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li4\"\u003eMaterial: Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li4\"\u003eBinding: Single Ply Cream, Fretboard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ul1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li4\"\u003eNeck: One Piece Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li4\"\u003eProfile: 60s SlimTaper™\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li4\"\u003eNut Width: 43mm \/ 1.69in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li4\"\u003eFingerboard: Rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li4\"\u003eScale Length: 628.65mm \/ 24.75in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li4\"\u003eNumber of Frets: 22\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li4\"\u003eNut: Graph Tech\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li4\"\u003eInlay: Mother of Pearl Dot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eHardware\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ul1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li4\"\u003eBridge: Historic Aluminum Wraparound with Intonation Adjustment Screws\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li4\"\u003eTailpiece: N\/A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li4\"\u003eTuners: Epiphone Deluxe Three on a Plate; White Button\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li4\"\u003ePlating: Nickel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eElectronics\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ul1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li4\"\u003eNeck Pickup: Gibson Custom USA P-90 Soapbar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li4\"\u003eBridge Pickup: Gibson Custom USA P-90 Soapbar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li4\"\u003eControls: 2 Volume, 2 Tone; CTS Potentiometers, Bumblebee Paper-in-Oil Capacitors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eCase \u0026amp; SKU\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ul1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li4\"\u003eCase: Hardshell with Brown Exterior, Pink Interior, and Inspired by Gibson Custom Graphics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight: 8.70 lbs\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Epiphone","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59163591082065,"sku":"25111526563","price":999.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1835\/7911\/files\/48827F1A-4F9F-471B-A693-8753B1F540A0_1_201_a.heic?v=1772663616","url":"https:\/\/www.quimpersound.com\/products\/epiphone-inspired-by-gibson-custom-1960-les-paul-special-dc-tv-yellow-2","provider":"Quimper Sound Records and Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
