Dressed to Kill The Les Paul Custom made its debut in 1954 after the initial success of the Les Paul Goldtop.

Mr. Les Paul himself wanted to convey to audiences that the solid body electric guitar was not a fad but a superb and challenging instrument and that his signature axe, the Les Paul, was the king of all electric solid body guitars.

So, Les requested a Les Paul with a custom color finish in solid black and solid white with gold hardware that would blend well with a tuxedo.

The result was the Les Paul Custom, or the tuxedo Les Paul, as it became known among fans.

The Les Paul Custom quickly became one of the most recognized guitars in the world and Les himself used his Les Paul Custom in concerts, on his weekly television show with wife Mary Ford and on his album covers, including his famous duet with pal Chet Atkins, Chester and Lester.

Great Tonewoods, Classic Les Paul Sound While all Les Pauls share common design features, the Les Paul Custom distinguished itself from the Les Paul Standard and Les Paul Goldtop with a solid mahogany body.

The Les Paul Custom PRO carries on that tradition but with the added twist of a maple veneer top, which adds a subtle bite to the Les Paul Customs legendary tone.

Just like Les personal Custom, the Les Paul Custom PRO has a solid mahogany neck with a 24.75 scale thats hand-fitted with a glued-in joint for optimum neck-to-body contact, which allows the Les Paul Custom PRO to resonate as one solid piece of wood.

The rosewood fingerboard features pearloid dot inlays and has a 12 radius, a 1.68 nut and 22 medium-jumbo frets.

The mahogany neck has a very comfortable and super fast SlimTaper D profile, the most popular profile found on todays Les Pauls.

The Custom PRO also features beautiful 5-ply (whiteblack) binding around the maple veneer top and the back along with single-ply white binding around the body.

The classic rosewood fingerboard is bound in white and the 60s era classic Epiphone clipped dovewing headstock features 5-ply (whiteblack) binding along with a Custom-style split diamond pearloid inlay and, of course, a vintage 60sKalamazoo era Epiphone logo in pearloid.

ProBucker Humbucker Power The Les Paul Custom PRO now features Epiphones ProBucker pickups, a 4-wire design with coil-tapping inspired by Gibsons legendary BurstBuckers.

ProBucker pickups recreate the sound of the original hand-wound PAF humbuckers made by Seth Lover at the Kalamazoo factory in the late 50s.

Epiphone ProBuckers feature all the same ingredients as original PAF and BurstBucker pickups, including Alnico II magnets, Elektrisola magnet wire, 18 nickel silver unit bases and covers, and pole screws, slugs and bobbins manufactured to Gibsons original specifications.

The result is a phenomenal pickup that, over time, will develop the subtle, one-of-a-kind characteristics that you can only get from vintage humbuckers.

And best of all, those unique pickup characteristics will give your guitar a unique voice.

No two vintage Les Pauls sound alike and ProBuckers give your Epiphone Les Paul Custom PRO a one-of-a-kind sound that will get better the more you play.

So plan on playing your Les Paul Custom PRO a lot The Les Paul Custom PRO includes a ProBucker-2 humbucker in the neck position that is slightly overwound for greater definition at higher volumes.
