Completed by locking tuners, the Epiphone Les Paul Modern is perfect for the player who enjoys the classic look of a Les Paul but demands modern versatility.
Asymmetrical modern neck
The Epiphone Les Paul Modern is outfitted with a mahogany neck with an Asymmetrical SlimTaper neck profile. Guitar players around note that the neck has a "D" shape on the bass side and a flat "C" shape on the treble side. It will comfortably fill your hand no matter whether you play thumb-over or thumb-behind. As you work your way up the neck, you'll have total access to the upper frets, thanks to the contoured heel joint.
Epiphone ProBucker pickups and innovative electronics
The Epiphone Les Paul Modern is outfitted with two Epiphone ProBuckers. These pickups are a modern re-creation of the legendary PAF humbucker and feature the same Alnico II magnets. Characterized by their rich, warm tones and tight bottom end, Epiphone ProBuckers are sure to meet almost any player's need. The Les Paul Modern also has extra switching options that make this an axe of all trades. You get coil splitting, phase inversion, and treble bleed, controlled by push-pull volume and tone pots. These extra options give you a nearly infinite amount of sounds to choose from. From single-coil spank to high output humbucker shred, the Epiphone Les Paul Modern has the tone for you.
Locking Rotomatic tuners
The Les Paul Modern sets itself apart from its contemporaries with Grover Rotomatic tuning machines. One of the most storied names in the world of guitar tuners, Grover has been keeping the world's finest stringed instruments in tune for more than a century. Featuring an 18:1 tuning radio, these tuners will perform to the most stringent tuning requirements without fail. Plus, you get the benefit of easy string changes. All the way down to the tuners, the Epiphone Les Paul Modern has player-centered upgrades that make it a must-have for your collection.
