Product Description

Known as the "Tuxedo" Les Paul, the Epiphone Les Paul Custom is dressed to kill, with Ebony or Alpine White finish over a fully-bound all-Mahogany body adorned with Gold hardware. As timeless as Les himself and at home in every setting from Rock to Jazz, this guitar has tone and sustain to spare thanks to all the classic Les Paul design elements and Epiphone's newest innovation, our new Epiphone LockTone™ locking Tune-o-matic bridge and Stop-bar tailpiece that endows you with even more rich tone and sustain. The set, Mahogany neck and Rosewood fingerboard has the iconic "block" inlays, as well as the "split-diamond" Abalone headstock inlay, the calling card of the Custom. Also living up to the original style, is the vintage original tone voiced by a pair of high-output Alnico Classic Humbuckers.

I have owned the Alpine White Epiphone Les Paul Custom for two years.

Previously, I have owned two American standard Fender Stratocasters (both were professionally set up) and niether one of them played as well or sounded better than this Epiphone Les Paul. If you are lucky enough to buy one of these beauties, do yourself a favor and have a luthier set it up. The neck is straight, the body is solid, and the tone is good. The only reason this gets 4 stars instead of 5, is that in my opinion the pick-ups and tone could be slightly better. But then again, if you really need that, get a Gibson.

I would not hesitate to recommend this guitar. It is solid.

Having owned and played more guitars through the years than I care to admit, because we sadly sometimes sell them off, this is one of the best guitars (stock) that I've ever played. It's a beautiful piece of musical equipment to look it, tunes and stays in tune flawlessly. It's as close to perfect as it gets.

Years ago, and I'll be honest, not many folks played Epiphones, they were considered cheap kockoffs compared to their more expensive counterparts -- Gibson. Through time though, I see more and more bands playing these guitars. From nightclubs to U2 and David Bowie ... this is a fantastic and well manufactured piece of equipment. I have two of these now, the oldest one being five years old and I love them both equally.
