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  \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eDouble Cutaway Mahogany Body\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOne Piece Mahogany Neck with a 60s SlimTaper Profile\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eRosewood Fretboard with Mother of Pearl Dot Inlays and 22 Medium Jumbo Frets\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eUSA-Made P-90 Soapbar Pickups from Gibson Custom\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eGibson “Open Book” Headstock\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCTS Potentiometers and Bumblebee Paper-in-Oil Capacitors\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBrown\/Pink Hardshell Case with Inspired by Gibson Custom Graphics\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\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 Specia 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 help to keep the tuning nice and 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. A 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  \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch4\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBody\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eBody Style: Double Cut\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBody Shape: Les Paul\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBody Material: Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBinding: Single Ply Cream, Fretboard\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBody Finish: Vintage Gloss\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eProfile: 60s SlimTaper™\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eScale Length: 628.65 mm \/ 24.75 in\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFingerboard Material: Rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFingerboard Radius: 304.8 mm \/ 12 in\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNeck Material: One Piece Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFret Count: 22\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFrets: Medium Jumbo\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNut Material: Graph Tech\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNut Width: 43.0 mm \/ 1.692 in\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eInlays: Mother of Pearl Dot\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eJoint: Glued In, Set Neck\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHardware\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eFinish: Nickel\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBridge: Historical Wraparound with Intonation Adjustment Screws\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTuning Machines: Epiphone Deluxe Three on a Plate; White Button\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePickguard: Historic-Style Les Paul Special Black 5-Ply; Wide Bevel\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTruss Rod: Dual Action\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTruss Rod Cover: 2-Ply Black Bell; Blank, Wide White\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eControl Knobs: Black Top Hat with Nickel Dial Pointer\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSwitch Tip: Amber\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSwitch Washer: Black with White Text\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eJack Plate Cover: 3-Ply Black\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eControl Covers: Black with Gold Inspired by Gibson Custom Logo\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eStrap Buttons: 2 - Bottom and Back of Body\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePickup Covers: Black Soapbar\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eElectronics\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eNeck Pickup: Gibson Custom USA P-90 Soapbar\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBridge Pickup: Gibson Custom USA P-90 Soapbar\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eControls: 2 Volume, 2 Tone; CTS Potentiometers, Bumblebee Paper-in-Oil Capacitors\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePickup Selector: 3-Way Switchcraft\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOutput Jack: 1\/4\" Switchcraft\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMiscellaneous\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eStrings Gauge: .010, .013, .017, .026, .036, .046\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCase: Hardshell with Brown Exterior, Pink Interior, and Inspired by Gibson Custom Graphics\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cbr\u003e    Manufacturer: Epiphone\u003cbr\u003eModel: ECLSR0TYNH1\u003cbr\u003eSKU: I808411-N-0-WHXC\u003cbr\u003eUPC: 711106166001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWe are Musictoner Musictoner\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince 1958, Chuck Levin’s Musictoner has been the trusted destination for musicians and audio professionals across Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C.
