The Les Paul Custom made its debut in 1954 after the initial success of the Les Paul Goldtop. Les Paul himself suggested black as a great color for his Les Paul because it looked "classy" and went well with a tuxedo on stage. From that point on, the Les Paul Custom has often been referred to as the "tuxedo" Les Paul. Add a chrome pick guard and open-coil Alnico Classic humbuckers, and you’ve got one of the most distinctive and best sounding axes in the business!
And like every Epiphone, the Les Paul Custom features our Limited Lifetime warranty backed by world famous 24/7/365 Gibson Customer Service. So put on your tuxedo and strap on an Epiphone Les Paul Custom today.
