Manufactured in July of 2007, this is a great example of Epiphones attempt at capturing the magic of early Les Paul Customs from the 1950s. The contrast of the black finish with gold hardware exudes class and elegance. Complimented by an all mahogany construction, the Epiphone Les Paul Custom is a great entry point into the Les Paul ecosystem. Sounds clear and present, with a noticeable sustain.
Hardware is functional, with a headstock repair done at some point in the past, which is stable. Plays well with a low-medium action.
