The Original Gibson Double Cut Is Back!

Epiphone has once again partnered with Gibson Custom to offer players access to historic guitars, and the 1960 Les Paul Special Double Cut Reissue is as iconic as it gets. In 1958, Gibson modified the Les Paul Special, adding a second cutaway to improve playability and fret access. Sporting several premium appointments, including a Gibson open-book headstock, Gibson USA pickups, and historically accurate design cues, the Les Paul Special Double Cut Reissue brings the original instrument's legendary look, sound, and playability. This reissued classic offers you the perfect combination of Gibson design and Epiphone quality, with its sleek, solidbody mahogany design, fast SlimTaper neck, and period-accurate capacitors. Whether you’re a touring professional or just getting started, the 1960 Les Paul Special Double Cut Reissue is your ticket to the tones that inspired generations.
