Epiphone Les Paul Gothic Studio - Pitch Back - Pre-Loved

This is a pre-loved guitar in good condition.

The Goth Les Paul Studio is the ultimate slab of dark magic with all the classic features of a Les Paul finished in Pitch Black satin, black hardware, and open coil Alnico Classic™ Pickups.

The Les Paul Studio was an important innovation of Les Paul’s classic dream guitar. As the name implies, the Les Paul Studio was geared toward studio musicians who desired a basic, unadorned Les Paul that weighed less than vintage Standard models. Introduced in the early ‘80s, the Les Paul Studio instantly became a favorite for Les Paul lovers of all ages.

The Epiphone Goth Les Paul Studio offers Les Paul fans a classic favorite with a fantastic dark Goth look.

Classic Epiphone Features Gone Goth

The Epiphone Goth Les Paul Studio features a solid mahogany body and deliver the classic tone and sustain that can only come from a “real” Les Paul.

Like all Epiphone Les Paul’s, and unlike less costly designs, the Epiphone Les Paul Studio features a 14 degree headstock that gives you more pressure at the nut for more sustain with less tuning hang-ups caused by “string-tree” gadgets.

A Rosewood fingerboard with XII at the 12th fret complete the Goth Les Paul Studio look and the hand-set mahogany neck delivers outstanding string-to-body resonance while medium-jumbo frets add to the smooth and sustained tone.

Epiphone Alnico Humbuckers and that Les Paul Sound

A pair of open Alnico Classic Humbucker Pickups deliver a vintage vibe with rich, warm tone that give you that coveted Les Paul Studio sound. When winding our humbuckers, Epiphone utilises a double vacuum waxing process that ensures quiet operation free from microphonic hum.

The pickup is first placed in a specialised wax vacuuming system before the cover is placed on the unit to ensure that the wax fully penetrates to the very centre of the pickup and solidifies all parts. After the cover is placed on, it is again given a second vacuum wax bath until the unit is completely saturated with wax.

Epiphone uses only the highest quality parts for its pickups like ABS plastic bobbins, 1010 Cold Rolled Steel pole shoes and pole screws, Alnico magnets and the finest magnet wire available.
