EPIPHONE LES PAUL STANDARD PLUSTOP PRO/FX

Legendary Les Paul Features and a Floyd Vibrato – The Best of Both Worlds! 

Nothing is sacrificed in the effort to bring this radical Les Paul its unparalleled new potential. A pair of genuine Alnico II pickups—Epiphone’s Alnico Classic™ in the neck position and Alnico Classic Plus™ in the bridge—take you from creamy warmth to sizzling wail and sustain at the flick of a switch. Need single-coil tones for your twangy and jangly moments? No sweat—just pop up the push/pull switch on each pickup’s volume control to tap these 4-wire humbuckers’ coil-splitting functions and you’re there. And both pickups are made with double vacuum wax-potted coils, so there’s no annoying howl at high volumes, just the sweet, singing sustain you’d expect from a great Les Paul. 

Floyd Rose™ vibratos are known as the most efficient and versatile units available, and to take this one right over the top, Epiphone has routed the back of the Les Paul Plustop PRO/FX’s to allow for pitch raising up to 2-1/2 steps while the downward range is wide enough to get the strings slack; meanwhile, an R4 locking nut keeps it all rock solid at the other end for improved tuning stability. Add to these the high-quality Grover™ tuners, and Epiphone StrapLocks and you’ve got an unparalleled gigging machine for the contemporary rocker.
