A Classic For The Modern Era
huge sustainIn terms of its construction and overall build, it’s hard to find a finer example of craftmanship and expertise than the Les Paul Classic. Its iconic single cutaway design and stunning curves give clear indication as to why it proved so successful when it released in the 1950s.
Now in 2022, Epiphone have reinvented the Les Paul Classic for todays players. The solid mahogany body offers a seriously comfy playing experience, but also helps in serving up the huge sustain for which the Les Paul has become so synonymous with.
Each of the alnico humbuckers have been direct to the maple top, which aids in resonating with the natural tonal qualities of mahogany body. The results are plain to see and hard to ignore. Rich, warm and textured tone. Over the decades, the Les Paul has become famous amongst players of all abilities for its brilliant playability, this is evident in the Les Paul Classic’s slim tapered neck, and the smooth feel of its Indian Laurel fingerboard.
