The popular Epiphone Tribute series, a gateway into the world of Epiphone guitars for countless new players, is expanding with the release of the new Epiphone Les Paul Tribute Plus. This affordable yet high-quality guitar is designed for beginner and intermediate-level players who want a quality guitar that won’t hold them back or hinder their learning progress.
The Les Paul Tribute Plus features a classic Gibson Les Paul-shaped body made from mahogany. It has a carved and bound top with an AAA flame maple veneer top that looks fantastic. The bolt-on mahogany neck has a fast and easy playing 60s SlimTaper Rounded C profile that makes practice sessions and jamming a joy, and a sculpted heel joint for improved upper fret access. The headstock features the popular 60s Kalamazoo shape and is outfitted with quality die-cast tuning machines, and the bound laurel fretboard is outfitted with 22 medium jumbo frets and adorned with pearloid trapezoid inlays.
The Les Paul Tribute Plus is equipped with an Epiphone LockTone™ Tune-O-Matic bridge and LockTone Stop Bar tailpiece for easy adjustment of string height and intonation, and both contribute to this model’s excellent sustain. The Epiphone Les Paul Tribute is powered by a pair of Epiphone humbucker™ pickups, with an Epiphone 650R in the neck position and an Epiphone 700T in the bridge position. Both pickups are equipped with powerful ceramic magnets for strong, full-bodied tone, and under the nickel covers, they have zebra pickup coils.
The Epiphone Les Paul Tribute Plus elevates the Tribute series with even more performance and better looks while remaining accessible to players everywhere. It’s a great choice for your first electric guitar or as a step up from a lesser-quality instrument and will serve you well on your musical journey for years to come. An optional Epiphone gig bag or hardshell case is available separately.
