Epiphone Les Paul Special Electric Guitar – Pelham Blue
The Epiphone Les Paul Special Electric Guitar – Pelham Blue will add classic looks and iconic tone to your instrument collection. The Les Paul formula has been rocking since the ’50s, and the Les Paul Special respects its heritage while adding some much-appreciated modern refinements like a Graph Tech nut for better tone and tuning stability. The tone is pure vintage, however, with a pair of P-90 Pro Soap Bar pickups crafted in the same fashion as ’50s originals. Whether you’re after the looks or the tone, the Epiphone Les Paul Special delivers the goods at a great value.
Iconic tone from P-90 Pro pickups
The P-90 Pro single-coil pickups in the Epiphone Les Paul Special are designed with many of the features of the original P-90 pickups created by Seth Lover in the ’50s. They’re sensitive pickups that respond amazingly well to the nuances of your picking. Dig in and they start to growl with a vocal-like quality. Played cleanly, the sound is rich and sparkling. If you love the articulation of single-coil pickups, but want a bit more girth to your tone, P-90 Pro pickups are the perfect choice.
Iconic Les Paul heritage
Since its release in the early 1950s, the Les Paul has been one of the most popular solidbody electric guitars in the world. It’s used in genres ranging from country to metal and can be found in the hands of players as diverse as Zakk Wylde, Neil Young, and the man whose name adorns the headstock. These dual-pickup beauties are capable of sounds that are rich, warm, and clear, while they can get aggressive, cutting, and mean with little effort.
Quality tonewoods and components
The Epiphone Les Paul Special sings with all the fatness and clarity of its more expensive cousins. That’s due in large part to the body’s mahogany construction. Mahogany is a well-known tonewood for its mix of harmonic richness and impressive sustain. The sonic excellence is enhanced further by the Graph Tech nut, which offers better tone and better tuning stability than plastic nuts.
