The Epiphone Les Paul Standard in Black (2008) is a timeless classic that delivers the iconic Les Paul look, feel, and tone at an accessible price. Built with a solid mahogany body and carved maple top, this 2008 model offers the rich sustain, warm mids, and punchy clarity that players expect from a true Les Paul. The sleek black finish gives it a bold, stage‑ready aesthetic that suits rock, blues, indie, and everything in between.
A comfortable mahogany neck with a rosewood fingerboard provides smooth playability, while the pair of Epiphone Alnico humbuckers delivers versatile tones—from creamy cleans to powerful overdrive. Chrome hardware, Grover‑style tuners, and classic Les Paul appointments ensure reliability and tuning stability whether you’re rehearsing, recording, or performing live.
Well‑built, great‑sounding, and visually striking, the 2008 Epiphone Les Paul Standard remains a favourite among guitarists who want vintage‑inspired tone and style without the premium price tag.
