In terms of string action, it’s also quite balanced. So, it can take some time to get used to the feeling if you play while standing up for a longer time if you’re not accustomed to this type of guitar. Since there’s no weight relief, it has some mass to it. The medium radius of the fretboard lends itself well to both open chords and fast runs. The neck is wide but not unwieldy and has a profile that makes it very comfortable. It’s got the dimensions and general qualities to give it a pretty convincing Les Paul feel. It’s a very clean, stylish, and timeless look that’ll impress bandmates and audiences alike. The traditional gold hardware and black pickguard also feature on both versions. There are two color options: Ebony or Alpine White. And a three-position pickup selector lets you use each pickup separately or both together. Their low-conductivity noise-reducing design makes them very transparent and makes the most of the fine tonewood.Īs usual, each pickup has its own volume and tone knobs. They’re very convincing, even to trained ears and Les Paul aficionados. These renowned Epiphone humbuckers closely follow the original Gibson humbucker formula with a few modern twists. There’s a ProBucker-2 humbucker in the neck position and a ProBucker-3 by the bridge.
All hardware and electronics have a gold finish to give the 2020 Epiphone Les Paul Custom that “tuxedo” look. It’s got classic Grover tuners and a Locktone ABR bridge, so it stays in tune nicely. The ebony fretboard looks luxurious, and together with the hardware, it gives the guitar a snappy and bright sound quality. Since it has a traditional solid mahogany body, it's pretty heavy and has a very full tone.
Like the new Les Paul Standards, the new Les Paul Custom has a more Gibson-like headstock, which makes it look more like a proper Les Paul.
