Description
The Epiphone Les Paul™ Custom has been updated and is now better than ever. Part of the Inspired by Gibson™ Collection, it honors the 1950s-era classic that was designed by Mr. Les Paul himself in 1954 as the “tuxedo” version of his groundbreaking solidbody masterpiece. It features an all-mahogany body (with a figured maple veneer top on the Heritage Cherry Sunburst version), a mahogany neck with a refined Modern Medium C neck profile, an ebony fretboard with pearloid block inlays and medium jumbo frets, gold hardware, including a gold Epiphone LockTone™ Tune-O-Matic™ bridge and LockTone Stop Bar tailpiece, a pair of Epiphone’s new Probucker™ Custom humbucker™ pickups, which are based on Gibson Custom’s Custombucker humbucking pickups, and a larger Custom split-diamond inlay on the headstock. This Epiphone Inspired by Gibson model also has the 60s style Kalamazoo headstock, a Graph Tech® nut, era-appropriate wiring, and CTS® potentiometers. An Epiphone premium gig bag is now included to help keep your guitar safe when not in use and when traveling.
