Description

Originally dreamt up as a beefed‑up version of the Les Paul Junior, the Gibson Les Paul Special introduced players to a world of extra tonal flexibility. Instead of the Junior’s single P‑90, you got two of ‘em. Add in fingerboard binding and a mother‑of‑pearl headstock logo, and suddenly you had a guitar that looked sharper, felt classier and sat comfortably between the Les Paul Junior and the more luxurious Les Paul Standard.
Released in 1955 as a single‑cut model, the Special evolved quickly. By 1958, it sported a double‑cutaway design for far easier upper‑fret access — a huge win for lead players. Then in 1960, the SlimTaper neck and repositioned rhythm pickup arrived, making the whole guitar even more stable, more comfortable and frankly, more addictive to play.
Now Epiphone has taken that iconic blueprint and given it a seriously classy makeover. The Les Paul Special Double Cut Figured keeps everything that makes the Special so playable, while turning the visual wow‑factor up to eleven!
Premium looks, classic feel
You get a Mahogany double‑cutaway body, capped with a stunning AAA figured Maple veneer — and yep, the top is bound too, adding a touch of refined flair.
The SlimTaper Mahogany neck is built for speed and comfort, finished with a bound Rosewood fingerboard, 22 medium‑jumbo frets and acrylic dot inlays. Simple, elegant and built for hours of effortless playing.
ProBucker power!
This is where it gets spicy. Instead of the P‑90s you’d normally find on a Special, Epiphone has loaded this model with a pair of their acclaimed ProBucker humbuckers:

ProBucker 2 (neck): Warm, expressive and vintage‑
ProBucker 3 (bridge): Slightly hotter for punchy leads and riffs.

Each pickup has its own volume and tone control, plus a classic three‑way toggle that gives you all the tonal versatility you could want — from smooth cleans to snarling rock tones.
Ready to hit the road
To top it all off, the Les Paul Special Double Cut Figured ships in a premium gig bag, so it’s ready for rehearsals, gigs or just showing off to your mates!Key Features
