The Epiphone Les Paul Custom P-90 Limited Edition electric guitar injects new life into a timeless classic. With its bound mahogany body and maple top, it carries the iconic Les Paul tone and sustain that has shaped rock and blues for decades. The '60s SlimTaper neck profile paired with an ebony fingerboard makes playing effortlessly smooth. Critically acclaimed P-90 pickups serve up growling midrange and singing highs, evoking the vintage-hot tone that defined rock's early days. With a LockTone bridge and tailpiece, tuning stability is rock solid. Plug in and let your playing take flight with the Les Paul Custom P-90.
The Les Paul Custom P-90 starts with a foundation of resonant mahogany, topped with maple for enhanced clarity and sustain. Just like the original 1950s Les Pauls played by legends, its gloss finish lets the wood ring to its full potential. The classic binding along the body and neck looks stunning, while also preventing picking-hand abrasion. When you pick up the Les Paul Custom P-90, its comfortable weight feels substantial in your hands, promising thick, singing tone as soon as you strum your first chord.
Shredding lightning-fast solos is effortless along the Les Paul Custom P-90's '60s SlimTaper neck profile. Its smooth, rounded contours invite your hand to fly up and down the neck with ease. The ebony fingerboard enhances note articulation while resisting wear over years of intense playing. Medium-jumbo frets are neatly finished for fluid bending and vibrato techniques. Whether you're playing bluesy licks or wailing metal riffs, the Les Paul Custom P-90 empowers your creativity through its slick playability.
The Les Paul Custom P-90 comes loaded with two P-90 pickups, which were hot-rodded in the 1950s to keep up with the demands of early rock and roll. Their sharp attack and singing sustain add vintage flavor that stands out in a mix. When you engage both pickups, the tone is thick and aggressive, perfect for overdriven blues solos. Flip to just the bridge pickup for a punchy twang that cuts through a live band. Dial back the volume for glassy cleans with chime. However you use them, these period-correct P-90s authentically capture a seminal era in guitar tone.
No matter how hard you dig in or bend notes, the Les Paul Custom P-90 won't go out of tune thanks to its stable LockTone bridge and tailpiece. Epiphone Deluxe tuners also enhance the look at tuning stability of this timeless guitar. When you want classic Les Paul mojo with modern playability, plug into the Epiphone Les Paul Custom P-90 electric guitar.
