Post your Epi Les Paul Custom


Recommended Posts

In the same spirit as the "Classic" topic time to show off your LES PAUL CUSTOMS (Not the SG)

As of a few years ago they only make Black, White & Silverburst models so PLEASE be posting yours here, the more awesome looking the better...

 

Mine is a July 2009 "Plus Top" limited run in Heritage Cherry - http://www.epiphone.com/default.asp?ProductID=48&CollectionID=6

 

The Before in stock state

Here's mine, regular old Alpine White custom, hanging out with the other black and white members of the family. Need to get some solo glamour shots. Also seen with my other Epis in my avatar.

It is a custom! [thumbup]

 

You're right, Sjael! The Prophecy Les Paul is, indeed a custom ...

... and so is the Black Beauty 3 ...

Both of these are bone stock, although the BB3 will be going through a fairly major overhaul shortly (new PUP's, bridge and tailpiece ... thinking about a Stetsbar!)

I'm always happy to talk about my custom. It is a John Connolly signature model that I got in '04. It's only sort of a Custom, but it's got block inlays and a custom inlay on the headstock, so I count it.

 

I have replaced the stock pickups with a Seymour Duncan Phat Cat in the neck and a Pearly Gates in the bridge. CTS pots and rewired, plus a coil tap for the PG along with a super sweet refinish job by a friend of mine and this is what I have now:
