Right in Two
The Epiphone Adam Jones Les Paul Custom is equipped with a reverse-mounted Epiphone ProBucker in the neck position, which delivers bright, rich and natural tones. The ProBucker is coupled with a Seymour Duncan Distortion humbucker in the bridge which offers tight and mean lows with a searing top end — ideal for a wide variety of rock and metal styles. The pickups are both wired to CTS potentiometers and Orange Drop capacitors for beautiful sonic clarity.
Stylish Hardware

Vintage-style chrome tuners add a luxurious, classic feel to the guitar’s headstock and provide rock-solid tuning stability.
