Epiphone Les Paul Studio E1 Electric Guitar
The Epiphone Les Paul Studio E1 rocks! It has everything new players need to get that one-of-a-kind Les Paul sound without breaking the bank. The all-Mahogany body has a carved top and is slightly lighter and slimmer than full-size Les Pauls. Becuase of this, it’s easy to hold for long practices and gigs. The bolt-on Mahogany neck has a “Les Paul” scale length of 24.75”. It also has a 1.68” nut, a 2-way adjustable truss rod for a perfect setup, a fingerboard with pearloid dot inlays, and a smooth tapered neck joint for easy reach to upper frets.
- Classic Les Paul with Carved Top
- Powerful Zebra-Coil Ceramic Humbuckers
- Tapered neck joint for easy upper fret access
The Les Paul Studio E1’s classic “Les Paul” power comes from two Zebra Coil Ceramic Humbuckers. Owners of vintage Les Pauls often remove their pickup covers for a better bass response and magnetic pull, revealing the black & white (“zebra”) bobbins underneath. Ceramic pickups have a higher output than vintage Alnico magnet pickups. They’re designed to provide a tight low-end response with both a smooth mid-range and a slightly more pronounced top end tone. Ceramic magnets have been a favorite of metal and hard rock guitarists for decades. The Les Paul Studio E1 has a 650R™ in the rhythm position and a 700T in the lead position. Controls include volume and tone for each pickup and an all-metal 3-way pickup selector.
This great value guitar features Epiphone-designed rock solid all-nickel hardware including the classic Les Paul bridge combo of a LockTone Tune-o-matic bridge & Stopbar tailpiece, a non-rotating ¼” output jack, and premium die-cast 14:1 ratio machine heads.
