2006 Epiphone Les Paul 100 Heritage Cherry Sunburst
Genuine Les Paul tone is closer than you think with the Les Paul 100. This affordable Epiphone uses two uncovered humbucker pickups to deliver the quintessential sound of Gibson’s most iconic model. Built with traditional tonewoods and hardware, the Les Paul 100 is an affordable way for any guitarist to take on the axe championed by such luminaries as Jimmy Page, Slash, and Ace Frehley.
Classic Les Paul Shape and Construction
With its single cutaway design, mahogany body, and maple top, this guitar distills the Les Paul down to its most basic form. Like most Les Pauls to come before it, the Les Paul 100 offers inviting playability with a smooth mahogany neck, granadillo fingerboard, and comfortable weight-distribution. The body is a bit slimmer than a standard Les Paul, which makes it all the easier to hold and play. Rounded out with a classic stopbar tailpiece and tune-o-matic bridge, this guitar maintains all the Les Paul features that guitarists have flocked to since 1952.
The Les Paul Tone
Ask any tone snob about the sound of a Les Paul and chances are you’ll get words like fat, growling, big and bold in response. The Les Paul 100 packs a pair of uncovered 700T and 650R humbucking pickups to capture these tonal qualities, covering a wide range of styles with elegance and force. Dial in a myriad of different tones with the dual volume and tone controls and three-way pickup selector. Epiphone is well known for the high-quality electronic components it brings to its entire range of guitars, and the Les Paul 100 is a shining example. Sturdy input jacks, clean connections, and expertly crafted pickups are just some of the ways that Epiphone Les Pauls continue to redefine expectations for budget-friendly guitars.
