{"product_id":"epiphone-igc-modern-les-paul-custom-ebony","title":"Epiphone IGC Modern Les Paul Custom - Ebony","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn 1954, Les Paul asked Gibson for a guitar that looked like a tuxedo — something elegant, refined, and unmistakably serious. The result was the Les Paul Custom, and for seven decades that black-and-gold aesthetic has defined what a \"dressed up\" electric guitar looks like. The Interstellar Tone Traveler is pleased to carry the Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Modern Les Paul Custom in Ebony — an instrument that brings that 1954 brief to life with all the visual authority the tuxedo concept demands. Ebony finish, gold hardware, 7-ply top binding, 5-ply back binding, Custom split-diamond headstock inlay in mother of pearl, and a 60's Kalamazoo headstock shape that ties the whole presentation together — this guitar looks exactly like a Les Paul Custom is supposed to look, and at a price point that makes that look genuinely accessible. The all-mahogany construction — body and neck — is the tonal recipe that made the original 1954 Les Paul Custom distinctive from its maple-capped Standard sibling: more mid-focused, warmer, with a smooth sustain character that the maple cap can't fully replicate. The ebony fingerboard with pearloid block inlays sits at a comfortable 12\" radius with 22 Medium Jumbo frets and a Modern Medium C profile that plays fast and easy over long sessions. ProBucker Custom humbuckers — Epiphone's pickups built on the DNA of Gibson Custom's own Custombucker design — provide a warm, PAF-inspired voice through CTS potentiometers and a 3-way toggle, with the kind of tonal responsiveness to pick attack and volume control that rewards attentive playing. Grover Rotomatic 18:1 tuners, LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge, and LockTone Stop Bar tailpiece handle tuning stability and sustain at the hardware level. At 9lbs 12oz, this is a substantial, resonant instrument — the kind that sits in the lap and fills the room. Includes Epiphone Premium Gig Bag.
