Description

Inspired by the Gibson Modern range, the Epiphone Les Paul Modern Figured brings the iconic Les Paul into the modern age. Comprised of contemporary upgrades and ergonomic weight relief, Epiphone presents a powerful and versatile workhorse to elevate your playing to the next level.

Key Features

  • Upgraded Hardware – Featuring Grover Locking Rotomatic tuners, a Graph Tech nut, and a LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge you can rest assured that your instrument will stay in tune with enhanced tuning stability for continuous playing and peace of mind.
  • Versatile Tone – The ProBucker 2 & 3 humbuckers provide that classic, crunchy Les Paul sound, with the ability to be split for single-coil goodness, you can create incredible and exciting soundscapes not normally produced by a Les Paul.
  • Lightweight Contemporary Construction – Made from lightweight Mahogany, the Les Paul Modern has the same tonal resonance as a Les Paul Standard, giving you warm, rich tones, with the added benefit of playing for hours on end without breaking your back.
  • Fast Fret Access – The contoured heel joint and slim tapered neck offer fast access to the whole neck for a comfortable and contemporary playing experience built for the modern player.

Contemporary Construction

Made of lightweight Mahogany with a beautiful Figured Maple top, this Les Paul Modern holds the same rich, warm, and dynamic tones as the standard, whilst giving you the benefit of playing for long periods of time with ease.

The asymmetrical slim tapered neck profile provides you with fast and comfortable access to move around the neck for some technical fretwork, whilst the modern contoured neck joint allows you to reach the higher ends of the fretboard without restriction.

Electrifying Tones

Loaded with a ProBucker 2 in the neck and a ProBucker 3 in the bridge, you’ll experience electrifying tones ranging from classic humbucker crunch to versatile P90 crispness thanks to the coil-split circuit housed in the tone controls. These high-output humbuckers deliver a clear mid-range, with plenty of gain and growl for a punchy, loud, and clear tone.

Thanks to the push-pull control knobs, the Les Paul Modern Figured top produces clean and articulate single-coil P90 tones that give you a versatile axe and the flick of a switch. The controls also include a pure bypass and phase switching for you to create unique and sonically impressive soundscapes.

Les Paul

A Les Paul is a solid body electric guitar known for its thick, powerful tone, strong sustain, and classic single-cutaway shape. It is commonly associated with warm, rich sounds and is well suited to rock, blues, jazz, and heavier styles, thanks to its mahogany body, carved top, and typically humbucker-loaded pickups that deliver depth, punch, and smooth overdrive characteristics.
