Epiphone Les Paul Custom Ebony, USED
The Epiphone Les Paul Custom Ebony is a classic and sophisticated take on one of the most iconic guitar designs in rock history. With its sleek, all-black finish, this guitar exudes a timeless, understated elegance, often referred to as the "tuxedo" Les Paul due to its refined aesthetics. Modelled after the Gibson Les Paul Custom, it retains many of the high-end features and luxurious appointments that define the Custom series, but at a more accessible price point, making it a popular choice for players seeking both style and substance.
The guitar's body is crafted from mahogany, offering deep, rich tonal characteristics with plenty of warmth and sustain. The mahogany neck, which is set into the body, provides enhanced resonance and stability. The neck features a '60s SlimTaper D profile, designed for fast and comfortable playability, making it a versatile instrument for a wide range of playing styles. Topped with an ebony fingerboard, the neck also showcases pearloid block inlays, adding to the guitar's premium look and feel.
Equipped with Epiphone's ProBucker pickups, the Les Paul Custom Ebony delivers a vintage-inspired tone reminiscent of the legendary PAF humbuckers. These pickups offer a well-balanced output, capable of producing smooth, warm tones from the neck position and brighter, more articulate sounds from the bridge. With individual volume and tone controls for each pickup, along with a three-way toggle switch, players have a wide palette of sounds at their fingertips, from bluesy rhythms to powerful rock leads.
Aesthetically, the guitar features multi-ply binding around the body, neck, and headstock, gold hardware, and the iconic split-diamond headstock inlay, giving it the luxurious feel that Les Paul Customs are known for. The combination of its all-black finish, elegant detailing, and reliable build quality makes the Epiphone Les Paul Custom Ebony a standout instrument for players who want the look and sound of a high-end Les Paul without the premium price tag. Whether on stage or in the studio, this guitar commands attention with both its appearance and performance.
