Its three-piece maple neck has a custom profile inspired by Jones' own '79 Les Paul, and it feels incredible for fast, hard riffing. Players will also love this model's 22-fret ebony fingerboard, which has a rich, dark appearance and a wicked-fast feel.
If versatility is a top priority for you, you'll love the Epiphone Adam Jones Les Paul Custom, thanks to its Custombucker neck pickup and Seymour Duncan Distortion bridge humbucker. Together, they produce a wide range of tones that cater to various musical styles, from metal to blues and everything in between. The neck pickup delivers a warm, full-bodied sound ideal for rhythm playing, while the bridge pickup offers a hot, aggressive growl that adds depth and dimension to lead lines. Just plug this Les Paul into your favorite amp, crank the volume, and you'll be amazed by the extensive array of dynamic, punchy tones it delivers.
