*** Note: Previously included tech specs automatically inserted by Gear Exchange seem to have been for the "Inspired by Gibson" Epi LP Custom that costs about $500 more new, has Gibson humbuckers and the Gibson headstock. Correct specs for this one are found @ the following now kept up for reference:
https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/EILCAWGH--epiphone-les-paul-custom-alpine-white
*** Gibson pickups in the new "Inspired by Gibson" Epi LP Custom might be worth a couple hundred more on paper, but these ProBuckers are great! I didn't foresee myself ever swapping them out. Anything extra for the true Gibson headstock is a waste IMO, but I know others feel differently. I personally like this "Kalamazoo" headstock. I will admit that the prior Epiphone headstocks looked awful on any but their largest guitars, like their Casinos.
- Will ship via FedEx through GearExchange within 2 business days at absolute most, more likely next business day or even same day if purchase is early enough on a business day
- Free shipping within continental U.S. only
- Purchased from Sweetwater in March 2023
- Plek'd by Sweetwater (for ~$300)
- Set up with .010"-.046" strings- has brand new GHS Boomers
- Weight is ~9 lbs.
- Pristine condition- maybe light scuffs on the pickguard I'd have to struggle to see
- Last eight photos are actual guitar "baby photos" from Sweetwater site prior to purchase, rest were just taken by me
- Upgraded tuners are Grover 502G Roto-Grip Locking Rotomatic Tuners - 3+3 Gold (were a drop-in, required no extra holes or drilling), sell on Sweetwater & elsewhere for ~$144:
https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/502G--grover-roto-grip-locking-rotomatic-tuners-33-gold
- Added case is Epiphone ENLPCS Hardshell Guitar Case for Les Paul, which sells @ Sweetwater and elsewhere for ~$129:
https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/ENLPCS--epiphone-guitar-case-for-les-paul
- Had pickup selector switch professionally replaced (not confident in my own soldering skills) with a better one (I'm told) when the original switch broke in transit. This will ship with the Styrofoam ring around that switch.
- Guitar has been in its case most of its life, home is smoke-free, humidity-controlled, so guitar, case and all are extremely clean!
*** This really is a beautiful, great playing and great sounding guitar, one I expect I will one day regret parting with. It's among the best LPs I've owned, beats some Gibsons LP Standards I've owned that cost much more. I hope someone will give it a good home!
Thanks for your interest!

Paying Tribute to the Les Pauls of Generations Past
The Les Paul Custom was one of the classiest of the Gibson line. After Les Paul himself requested a high-end version of his signature model, the Les Paul Custom was born. Featuring an all-mahogany body, an ebony fingerboard, decadent binding, and ornate inlay work, he got what he asked for. The Epiphone Les Paul Custom faithfully re-creates the magic of the original Les Paul Custom down to the tiniest detail. It's made with the same mahogany body, features gorgeous binding and inlays, and sounds killer when you plug it in. The SlimTaper neck profile ensures playability while reliable tuning machines make sure your tuning is spot on. The Epiphone Les Paul Custom is the kind of guitar that you don't want to pass up.
Classic styling
There's something about the Les Paul that has captivated guitarists for the better part of six decades. Players around Sweetwater agree that it's one of the best looking guitars in Epiphone's lineup. The classy finish is complemented by stunning gold hardware, multi-ply binding, block inlays on the fingerboard, and an inlaid Gibson diamond on the headstock. The classic Les Paul aesthetic has never looked as good as it does on the Epiphone Les Paul Custom.
Traditional tonewood combination
The Epiphone Les Paul Custom doesn't just look good, it feels like a classic solidbody too. The Custom-style all-mahogany body is warm and resonant. Next, the mahogany neck is carved into Epiphone's SlimTaper profile for speed and comfort. Finally, a genuine ebony fingerboard is added for a smooth feel and added bite. You can count on the Epiphone Les Paul Custom to create rich, well-balanced tones.
Epiphone's acclaimed ProBucker pickups
The key ingredient to the Les Paul's early success was the PAF humbucking pickup. The first of its kind to hit the mainstream, the Patent Applied For humbuckers defined the sound of a generation with their fat tone and clear response. With the price of vintage PAFs skyrocketing, Epiphone set out to create their own PAF-style pickup. Thus, the ProBucker humbucking pickup was born. Inspired by the original PAF sound, these pickups pump out full overwound tones with incredible clarity. When you plug in, you'll instantly recognize the signature Les Paul punch.
Epiphone Les Paul Custom Solidbody Electric Guitar Features:
- Classic look and great tone; all in an affordable package
- Mahogany body adds warmth and resonance
- Ebony fingerboard feels great under your fingers
- Dual volume and tone controls let you shape your sound
- SlimTaper neck profile is fast and comfortable
- Multi-ply binding looks great onstage
