This Epiphone 1959 Standard Outfit ADB is a seriously impressive instrument for the price. It nails that vintage Les Paul vibe with the Burstbucker pickups and comfortable neck, making it ideal for players wanting classic rock and blues tones without the premium-priced Gibson tag. The aged finish is a nice touch too, giving it a lived-in feel.
