Epiphone Les Paul Standard Plus Top Pro Wine Red

Description

EPIPHONE LES PAUL STANDARD PLUS TOP PRO WINE RED

The new Epiphone Les Paul Standard Plustop PRO features a solid mahogany body with an AAA flame maple top, which are the typical materials used for the "true" Les Paul. The body is enhanced by a single-ply cream binding for a fantastic vintage look. Like all Epiphone Les Pauls, the Standard Plustop PRO has a headstock angled 14° from the neck, in order to increase pressure on the nut, increasing sustain, without having to resort to string trees that alter the sound. The mahogany neck has a 24.75" scale, a 12" radius, and a 1960s SlimTaper™ profile. The rosewood fingerboard is adorned with "trapezoid" style inlays, while the 22 frets are modern medium jumbo.

In terms of electronics, the Les Paul Standard Plustop PRO is equipped with the new Pro-Bucker™ pickups. Thanks to Alnico II magnets (the same ones used for the original Gibson PAFs), these generate a warm and full-bodied sound. The Pro-Bucker-2™ is positioned at the neck, while the Pro-Bucker-3™, with higher output, is at the bridge. Both pickups feature coil-tapping, activatable via the push/pull volume knob for each pickup.
