Description

Epiphone has partnered up with the Gibson Custom Shop to create the latest Adam Jones 1979 Silverburst Les Paul Custom. You’ll notice the Gibson-style headstock, Gibson Custombucker Reverse mounted neck pickup, Seymour Duncan Distortion bridge pickup, and Graph Tech nut, just to name a few upgraded features on this signature instrument.

Adam Jones Tone

Built to Jones’ specification, the reversed-mounted Custombucker produces a clean, boxy tone that is distinctive from other Gibson Custombuckers, giving you that famous Tool tone. The Seymour Duncan Distortion you might notice features on other Adam Jones signature instruments, this humbucker is a staple of his signature sound, giving you heavy lead soundscapes that will cut through any mix without a muddy frequency.

A Comfortable Tool

The Adam Jones Custom neck profile is an exact replication of his 1979 Les Paul Custom, giving you an accurate feel. Thin and narrow at the nut, and gradually thicker towards the 12th fret, this compound-style neck shape is very comfortable and dynamic in your hand.

Key Features

  • Gibson Custom Shop Treatment – With a Gibson accurate headstock, pickups, CTS Potentiometers, and Orange Drop Capacitors, this Adam Jones 1979 Les Paul Custom Silverburst signature guitar gives you an accurate recreation of Jones’ original at an attractive price point.
  • Hardshell Case – Included with this signature guitar is a hardshell case designed to fit most Les Pauls, keeping your instrument protected wherever you go.
  • Famous Comfortability – In homage to Jones’s ’79 Les Paul Custom, this guitar features many of the same specs, most notable being his custom tapered neck that gives you the ease of access moving around the fretboard.
