With 24k gold-plated hardware, exclusive hardware and wood options, new Ltd Ed Les Paul Custom 100th Anniversary Outfit is the most exclusive Epiphone LP ever made.
Back in the days before the LP we all know and love, Les Paul used Epiphone`s factory to experiment and build The Log, the first electric guitar in history. It was made of a pine board, Epiphone guitar neck and some home-made pickups. It wasn`t much of a looker, but it marked the beginning of a new era in guitar evolution. Thomas Edison of rock`n`roll, as Les Paul is sometimes called in guitar circles did not stop then and there, his quest was much bigger as h wanted to perfect the instrument he invented. Fast forward to 1952, Mr. Paul has, after countless experiments, concepts and trials, finally come up with a beautiful single-cut design with two fat single-coil pickups, solid body with a carved top, 22-fret neck and super elegant tuxedo black paint job. The legend we now know as LP was finally born and ready to change the face of music industry forever. Fast forward to 2015, LP is still the world`s premier electric guitar and Epiphone celebrates Mr. Paul`s 100th birthday with the awesome Ltd Ed Les Paul Custom 100th Anniversary Outfit.
Epiphone Ltd Ed Les Paul Custom 100th Anniversary Outfit is a solid, single-cut guitar with mahogany base and flamed maple top (Cherry variant has a mahogany top). Set mahogany neck with slim taper profile completes the classic LP chassis. Epiphone`s Probucker pickups (#3 in the bridge and #2 in the neck) come with classic LP controls and gold-plated covers (all hardware is plated in 24k gold).
