Played clean you get satisfying clarity, and with effects the Epiphone G-400 distorts the way a rocker should. |

The Epi G-400 boasts a LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece to provide increased sustain and make string changes easier. The full-body pickguard is an upgrade from the regular G-400. Epiphone equips the Limited Edition G-400 with a solid mahogany body and a slim-taper mahogany neck, and a 24-3/4" scale with a rosewood fretboard.

Epiphone's Les Paul Plustop PRO/FX unites all the great features and looks of a Les Paul electric guitar then adds coil-tapping and a double-locking Floyd Rose tremolo. It's an amazing combination of crunchy tone and sonic versatility in a single guitar.
If you enjoyed watching Neal Schon of Journey playing his trem-equipped Les Paul, but never thought you could afford one of your own, then you'll want to grab one of these Epiphone Les Pauls before the limited run disappears. For signature Les Paul crunch, Epiphone puts an Alnico Classic humbucker in the neck position that yields warmth and subtle tone with full, even response. An Alnico Classic Plus humbucking pickup arms the bridge position. A perfect companion to the Classic, the bridge pickup is overwound for a slighter higher output without sacrificing its rich, vintage tone. Both pickups are equipped with Alnico-II magnets, enamel wire, double-vacuum wax coating, and 4-wire output. |

The body is routed behind the trem for pitch-raising up to 2-1/2 steps while the downward range is wide enough to get the strings slack. The guitar's locking nut insures that even if you dive bomb with gusto it still stays in tune.
The PRO/FX Les Paul is crafted with a solid mahogany back with a highly-flamed maple plus-top. The solid mahogany SlimTaper D-profile neck is hand-fitted and glued into the body for excellent neck-to-body contact and sustain.

Cool Product of the Day: Epiphone Limited Edition Les Paul Custom Electric Guitar
Posted by Music123 Staff Sep 25, 2010Caution: The photograph below may not do justice to Epiphone's Limited Edition Silverburst Finish Les Paul Custom Guitar. | |

The silverburst Les Paul finish, made famous by Tool guitarist Adam Jones, is only released in small production runs. If you order yours now, you get a free Epiphone hardshell case. Here's why you should:

The stock dual humbucker pickups put out some soulful blues with unbeatable tone that will sound great on any amp. If you want to generate heavy metal, just replace the pickups with your |

favorite brand. A carved alder top covers a mahogany back that's a tad lighter than the Gibson version. The 24-3/4" set neck is topped with a rosewood fretboard that's 1-11/16" wide at the nut.
Aside from the sexy good looks and its awesome sound, the Silverburst Epiphone LP is built like a tank. At this price, it's a steal.
