Timeless PAF-inspired tone meets shimmering, stage-ready style in this Guitar Center Exclusive Epiphone Les Paul Custom, pairing the model's iconic mahogany-and-ebony foundation with an exclusive Silver Burst finish and gleaming chrome hardware. A solid mahogany body and set mahogany neck provide the warmth, resonance and sustain at the heart of the Les Paul sound, while an ebony fingerboard adds smooth playability and crisp articulation. A ProBucker 2 in the neck position delivers warm, nuanced humbucker tone, while the hotter ProBucker 3 bridge pickup adds punch and definition for commanding rhythm and lead work. The SlimTaper neck profile and 24.75" scale keep the substantial single-cut comfortable and responsive beneath the fingers, while five-ply body binding, pearloid block inlays and chrome Grover tuners reinforce the Custom's elevated aesthetic. Complete with a gig bag, this exclusive Les Paul brings classic Custom character into sharp focus with a finish available only at Guitar Center.
Mahogany Construction Meets Exclusive Silver Burst Style
The Epiphone Les Paul Custom starts with a solid mahogany body, providing a warm, resonant foundation with strong midrange presence and the sustain associated with classic Les Paul construction. A set mahogany neck creates a solid connection through the body, complementing that tonal foundation with added resonance and sustain. Exclusive to Guitar Center, the Silver Burst finish transforms the familiar single-cut silhouette with a shimmering gradient that brings a distinctive edge to the Custom's traditionally upscale appearance. Crisp five-ply body binding frames the top and back, creating bold contrast against the finish and reinforcing the dressed-up character that has distinguished the Les Paul Custom since its introduction.
SlimTaper Mahogany Neck for Fast, Comfortable Playability
A set mahogany neck with Epiphone's SlimTaper profile gives the Les Paul Custom a streamlined feel that supports fluid movement across the fingerboard without sacrificing the substantial character of a traditional Les Paul. The 24.75" scale provides a slightly relaxed string response for expressive bends, comfortable chord work and smooth lead playing, while the ebony fingerboard combines a 12" radius with 22 vintage-style frets for a familiar playing surface across the neck. Pearloid block inlays provide clear position reference while reinforcing the Custom aesthetic, and a 1.69" Graph Tech nut supports consistent string movement and precise tuning performance.
ProBucker Pickups for PAF-Inspired Humbucker Tone
A ProBucker 2 neck pickup and ProBucker 3 bridge pickup give the Les Paul Custom a versatile dual-humbucker voice inspired by the warmth, clarity and harmonic complexity of vintage PAF pickups. The ProBucker 2 delivers a smooth, rounded neck sound with enough definition to keep chords articulate and lead lines expressive, while the higher-output ProBucker 3 adds punch, bite and presence at the bridge for authoritative rhythm work and focused leads. A three-way pickup selector moves quickly between the two voices or combines them for a balanced middle position, while individual volume and tone controls for each pickup provide familiar Les Paul flexibility for shaping everything from warm, rolled-back textures to full, open humbucker power.
Chrome Hardware and Classic Les Paul Custom Details
Chrome hardware gives this exclusive Les Paul Custom a bright, polished contrast against its Silver Burst finish, extending the guitar's distinctive aesthetic from the body to the headstock. Grover tuning machines provide smooth, accurate adjustment, while the Tune-O-Matic bridge offers individual saddle intonation and pairs with a stopbar tailpiece for a solid, dependable string anchor. Five-ply body binding and pearloid block inlays bring classic Custom detail to the single-cut design, complemented by the dark ebony fingerboard and high-gloss finish. Together, the appointments balance familiar Les Paul Custom sophistication with the sharper visual character of this exclusive Silver Burst edition.
Classic Les Paul Custom Character in an Exclusive Finish
Since its introduction in the 1950s, the Les Paul Custom has represented a more sophisticated side of the Les Paul, pairing the model's powerful humbucker voice and sustaining solidbody construction with an unmistakably dressed-up presentation. This Guitar Center Exclusive Epiphone Les Paul Custom carries that identity forward with a mahogany body and set neck, ebony fingerboard and PAF-inspired ProBucker pickups, giving it the substance to match its striking appearance. The exclusive Silver Burst finish and chrome hardware bring a distinctive edge to the familiar Custom aesthetic without losing the elegance at the heart of the design. Powerful, versatile and unmistakably Les Paul, this exclusive Custom offers classic character with a look all its own.
