EPIPHONE VINTAGE DELUXE MACHINE HEADS

The Epiphone Machine Heads are a perfect fit for the Slash Les Paul. With vintage styling and excellent tuning stability these are a great set of Machine Heads.

 

EPIPHONE PRO ALNICO II HUMBUCKERS

This guitar features Epiphone Pro Humbuckers. They have a thick, warm sound that helps to achieve that iconic Les Paul tone.

GLOSS POLYURETHANE FINISH  

The Polyurethane finish is much more resistant to general wear, meaning that scratches and dings are harder to see and inflict. This helps to leave your new Les Paul looking shiny even after decades of use!

MAHOGANY BODY

When used as the body material on a Les Paul, mahogany can deliver a fat, beefy tone with excellent sustain and projection. It offers a strong foundation for the guitar's pickups and enhances the natural resonance of the instrument.

LOCKTONE TUNE-O-MATIC BRIDGE

The LockTone feature refers to the inclusion of small screws on either side of the bridge, which are designed to lock the bridge securely onto the guitar body. This helps to prevent the bridge from shifting or moving during playing, which can cause tuning instability and affect the guitar's overall tone.

The Tune-O-Matic design provides excellent intonation and adjustability, allowing guitarists to fine-tune the string height and intonation for each individual string. The bridge consists of individual saddles that can be adjusted for each string, providing accurate tuning across the fretboard.
