Description
The new Epiphone Les Paul™ Custom Modern Figured raises the bar for contemporary playability and forward‑thinking design. As the latest entry in the Inspired by Gibson lineup within the Modern Collection, it builds on the legacy of the Les Paul Custom while introducing upgrades that enhance comfort, responsiveness, and versatility.
The Les Paul Custom Modern Figured pairs a mahogany body with Ultra Modern weight relief, creating a lighter, more ergonomic instrument that remains rich in tonal character. A maple cap topped with an AAAA flame maple veneer adds crisp attack and brightness to the mahogany's warm midrange, while also delivering a striking visual presence. Its mahogany neck is carved to a fast 60s SlimTaper™ C profile and joined to the body with a Modern Contoured Heel, allowing effortless reach across the entire bound ebony fretboard. The fretboard's 10"-14" compound radius ensures smooth playability for both chord work and expressive lead playing, and it features 22 medium jumbo stainless steel frets with hemispherical ends for exceptional durability and comfort. Custom pearloid block inlays complete the classic aesthetic.
A bound 60s Kalamazoo‑style headstock features the Epiphone logo and Custom split diamond rendered in mother‑of‑pearl, and comes fitted with locking Grover® Rotomatic® tuners with tulip buttons, paired with a Graph Tech® nut for outstanding tuning stability. Nickel‑plated LockTone™ hardware, including a Tune‑O‑Matic™ bridge and Stop Bar tailpiece, provides rock‑solid string anchoring and full adjustability for dialing in action and intonation. Posi‑Lok™ strap buttons offer secure, hardware‑free strap retention.
Powering the Les Paul Custom Modern Figured is a pair of Epiphone T‑Type PRO™ humbuckers™ with nickel covers, each supported by dedicated volume and tone controls. Both volume knobs include push/pull coil‑splitting capability, while one tone control incorporates a push/pull phase switch for expanded tonal options when both pickups are engaged. With its blend of modern enhancements and classic appeal, the Les Paul Custom Modern Figured is a refined choice for musicians seeking a stage‑ready instrument with a wide sonic range. Each guitar ships with a premium gig bag for protection on the move.

Q & A

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty
A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.
Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.
How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
- Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
- Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
- No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
- Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
- Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
- Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
- Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
- Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
- Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.
Purchasing additional years of coverage
Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.
If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:
- NEW products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
- USED products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
- GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
- BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
