Setting a new benchmark for modern performance
The new Epiphone Les Paul™ Custom Modern Figured raises the bar for contemporary playability and forward‑thinking design. As the latest entry in the Inspired by Gibson lineup within the Modern Collection, it builds on the legacy of the Les Paul Custom while introducing upgrades that enhance comfort, responsiveness, and versatility.
The Les Paul Custom Modern Figured pairs a mahogany body with Ultra Modern weight relief, creating a lighter, more ergonomic instrument that remains rich in tonal character. A maple cap topped with an AAAA flame maple veneer adds crisp attack and brightness to the mahogany’s warm midrange, while also delivering a striking visual presence. Its mahogany neck is carved to a fast 60s SlimTaper™ C profile and joined to the body with a Modern Contoured Heel, allowing effortless reach across the entire bound ebony fretboard. The fretboard’s 10″–14″ compound radius ensures smooth playability for both chord work and expressive lead playing, and it features 22 medium jumbo stainless steel frets with hemispherical ends for exceptional durability and comfort. Custom pearloid block inlays complete the classic aesthetic.
A bound 60s Kalamazoo‑style headstock features the Epiphone logo and Custom split diamond rendered in mother‑of‑pearl, and comes fitted with locking Grover® Rotomatic® tuners with tulip buttons, paired with a Graph Tech® nut for outstanding tuning stability. Nickel‑plated LockTone™ hardware, including a Tune‑O‑Matic™ bridge and Stop Bar tailpiece, provides rock‑solid string anchoring and full adjustability for dialing in action and intonation. Posi‑Lok™ strap buttons offer secure, hardware‑free strap retention.
Powering the Les Paul Custom Modern Figured is a pair of Epiphone T‑Type PRO™ humbuckers™ with nickel covers, each supported by dedicated volume and tone controls. Both volume knobs include push/pull coil‑splitting capability, while one tone control incorporates a push/pull phase switch for expanded tonal options when both pickups are engaged. With its blend of modern enhancements and classic appeal, the Les Paul Custom Modern Figured is a refined choice for musicians seeking a stage‑ready instrument with a wide sonic range. Each guitar ships with a premium gig bag for protection on the move.
