The Epiphone Les Paul Classic—a reimagined take on a rock'n'roll legend. Modeled after the most popular electric guitar in music history, this premium ax provides the look and tone that defined generations of rock music, now upgraded with modern parts for today's player.

Alnico Classic PRO Pickups Provide Classic PAF Tone

At the heart of the Epiphone Les Paul Classic are Epiphone's acclaimed Alnico Classic PRO humbucking pickups. Wound with Alnico V magnets and enamel-coated wire, these pickups produce the warm, harmonically rich tone of vintage PAF humbuckers that shaped rock in the 1950s and '60s. With tones ranging from thick, creamy rhythm sounds to searing leads, the Alnico Classic PROs make this Les Paul a tonal powerhouse.

Coil-Splitting Provides Single-Coil Versatility

While the Epiphone Les Paul Classic has the tone of a traditional Les Paul, its electronics provide modern versatility. Both volume knobs feature push-pull pots for coil-splitting the Alnico Classic PRO humbuckers, turning them into single-coils. This provides brighter, snappier tones, allowing this Les Paul to authentically capture classic rock and blues sounds as well as jangly pop and country twang.

Premium Components for Road-Ready Performance

From top to bottom, the Epiphone Les Paul Classic is built for the stage. Its solid mahogany body with a maple cap provides the balanced, resonant tone the Les Paul is known for. The slim mahogany neck and 12"-radius laurel fingerboard offer a fast and comfortable feel. Grover kidney tuners, a LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge, and premium CTS electronics deliver rock-solid tuning stability and transparent tone. All components on the Epiphone Les Paul Classic are built to withstand the rigors of touring and studio use.

A Legend Reborn and Ready to Rock

With its iconic looks, versatile PAF-inspired tone, and premium components, the Epiphone Les Paul Classic brings one of rock's greatest legends to life. This reimagined Les Paul provides an authentic rock experience players at every level can afford. Order the Epiphone Les Paul Classic today and become part of music history.
