Epiphone Inspired By Gibson Les Paul Custom - Amethyst w/ Hard Case
EpiphoneSince its grand entrance in the early 1950s, the Les Paul Custom's iconic visual design and sonic versatility have touched the hearts of countless high-profile musicians. Broken down to its finest components, the Epiphone Les Paul Custom's thoughtful mahogany body construction and maple top bear the sonic and visual resemblance of its contemporaries while favoring several period-correct appointments to match the standard of its mid-century roots. Gibson's USA-series humbuckers positioned in the neck and bridge cater to several sonic possibilities, from clean rhythm keeping to devious hot-rodded squeals and everywhere in between. Topped off with its proprietary Tune-o-matic bridge, stopbar tailpiece, and an assemblage of "Tuxedo"-inspired appointments, the Epiphone Les Paul Custom harbors the leverage of Gibson's most iconic 6-string design at an approachable value.
