The neck is also made of mahogany, and the fretboards are all ebony, which is a very dark and resonant wood. It’s almost more red than brown, and it looks beautiful. This wood is very defined and quite dark. The limited edition Koa has a Koa wood top. The body is made from solid mahogany, with a carved mahogany top. This also changes the sound a little, but that’s how you get that classic PAF sound of the Gibson. The pickups all come with covers for that classic look. The finishes are gorgeously done, as is the binding, which goes all around the body, neck and the headstock. The 2020 Custom looks similar to the Gibson, even with the new Epiphone headstock. The guitar comes in three finishes: Alpine White, Ebony, and the limited edition Koa. It looks like the real deal, and at a way more affordable price than its Gibson counterpart. Right off the bat, this guitar looks stunning.
2020 EPIPHONE LES PAUL PRO
Ulimately, the Custom Pro gets you as close as you can to a Gibson, except with “Epiphone” at the headstock instead.Īppearance, Materials, Hardware and Playability Appearance The Custom Pro boasts a AAAA veneer, better hardware, upgraded pickups, binding, and a thinner neck, each of which bring this guitar closer to a Gibson. While it’s not lightyears ahead of the other models in terms of playability-though obviously the fit and finish is much better than, say, the 100-it shines in how it looks and sounds.
2020 EPIPHONE LES PAUL SERIES
The Custom Pro series is the flagship series of Epiphone’s Les Paul range. This guitar is also meant for the Les Paul lover who needs a great backup for their higher-priced Gibson, especially going into a bar gig that might be a bit too rowdy for a $4000 guitar. The Custom Pro is a great looking and sounding guitar, and the coil tapping gives you a wealth of tonal options. The Custom Pro line is designed for intermediate guitarists who want to step up their game with a great bang-for-your-buck guitar.
