A Les Paul Built for Today’s Guitarist
The Epiphone Les Paul Modern Figured electric guitar offers all the traditional design elements you expect from a Les Paul, with a few extra upgrades for good measure. First and foremost, the mahogany body features weight relief to ensure total comfort onstage and beyond. The body is paired with a show-stopping maple top to add a bit of extra brightness to the sound. Plug into your favorite amp, and the pair of ProBucker humbucking pickups pump out vintage-tinged tonality. That’s not all you get, though. This axe features independent coil splits, treble bleed, and a push-pull phase switch, allowing to access an array of tones. Finally, your fingers will delight at the Slim Taper mahogany neck and smooth-as-glass ebony fingerboard. For old-school Les Paul tone and modern flexibility, you won’t top the Epiphone Les Paul Modern Figured.
Classic tonewoods with weight relief
The Les Paul Modern Figured comes with all the traditional tonewoods you’d expect from a Les Paul. First up, you get a mahogany body with extensive internal chambering to lessen weight. City Music Les Paul fans report that the weight-relieved body is more comfortable for long sets onstage yet sacrifices no tonal character. The body is paired with a figured maple top that commands attention in any environment. This classic tonewood pairing ensures your new Les Paul delivers every ounce of tone imaginable.
An old-school voice — with a twist
Classic Les Paul guitars from decades past were loaded with the iconic PAF pickup. The Patent Applied For (PAF) pickup design continues to influence modern music. Case in point: the Epiphone Les Paul Modern Figured. It comes equipped with a pair of ProBucker pickups, which offer a PAF-style tone with the clarity and bite needed for contemporary music. The electronics are updated, too, giving you per-pickup coil splitting capabilities with treble bleed on both volume knobs. What’s more, there’s a phase switch built into one of the tone pots. Choose the Les Paul Modern Figured for its old-school tone and modern flexibility.
Super comfortable neck
Each Les Paul Modern Figured electric guitar comes with a mahogany neck carved into a Slim Taper profile. This version of the Slim Taper features a slightly asymmetrical feel, which helps it fit into your palm better than a traditional baseball bat neck. A luxurious ebony fingerboard and well-dressed frets top the set-in mahogany neck. With a neck like this, you’ll be unimpeded as you explore the upper limits of your playing ability.
