An exacting tribute to Adam Jones' legendary Silverburst Les Paul Custom.
The Epiphone Adam Jones Les Paul Custom electric guitar brings the precise look, feel and tone of Adam Jones' most prized guitar to life. Meticulously crafted by the expert luthiers at Epiphone in partnership with the Gibson Custom Shop, every detail echoes Adam's original 1979 Gibson Les Paul Custom down to the Silverburst finish. From the mahogany body with maple cap to the three-piece maple neck with custom profile, it's built to inspire your creativity.
Custombucker and Seymour Duncan Distortion Pickups Offer Versatile Tones
The Adam Jones Les Paul comes equipped with a Custombucker pickup in the neck position and a Seymour Duncan Distortion in the bridge position, providing a multitude of tone options. The Custombucker pickup delivers a smooth, singing lead tone, while the high-output Seymour Duncan Distortion packs plenty of sustain and cutting mids perfect for aggressive rhythm playing. Blend the two pickups together to find that sweet spot.
Mahogany Body with Maple Cap Provides Balanced Resonance
The guitar's mahogany body with a maple cap produces a balanced, well-rounded tone that's nicely responsive to your playing dynamics. The mahogany offers rich, warm lows with good sustain, while the maple cap adds snap and crispness to the highs and mids. Together, they create the quintessential Les Paul sound.
Ebony Fingerboard Promises Smooth Playability
The dark, dense ebony fingerboard feels slick and fast under your fingers for effortless soloing and bending. Its 22 medium nickel silver frets are smoothly finished for bend- and slide-friendly playability. Plus the 24.75" scale length provides tight string tension that Les Paul players love.
Inspired by Adam's Favorite 1979 Silverburst Les Paul
The Antique Silverburst finish on the Epiphone Adam Jones Les Paul Custom is inspired by Adam's favorite guitar—a 1979 Gibson Les Paul Custom in Silverburst. This iconic finish combined with the classic Les Paul shape captures the vibe of that cherished guitar. It features Gibson's "open book" headstock profile as a further tribute to that 1979 instrument. For Tool fans, or anyone looking for an electric guitar with vintage character, the Adam Jones model delivers iconic style.
Comes Complete with Case and Convex Mirror Accessory
The Epiphone Adam Jones Les Paul Custom comes protected in a deluxe hardshell case and even includes a replica of Adam's signature 2" convex mirror as a bonus accessory. Now you can channel Adam Jones' legendary guitar tone and style in one phenomenal instrument.
