Epiphone Les Paul Tribute Plus Vintage Sunburst

A “Tribute” Les Paul designed as a serious entry point into the Epiphone range

Part of Epiphone’s renowned Tribute series, the Les Paul Tribute Plus retains the historic Les Paul hallmarks (curves, carved top, classic aesthetics) while steering them towards a more modern and accessible experience. It represents a natural step up within the Epiphone range, with particular attention paid to playing comfort and a refined presentation, without losing sight of its goal: to offer a genuine, reliable workhorse guitar for lasting progress.

Which guitarists and styles is it suited to?

The Les Paul Tribute Plus is primarily aimed at demanding beginners and intermediate guitarists looking for their first serious electric guitar, or wanting to replace an entry-level instrument. Thanks to its ceramic humbuckers and Les Paul format, it excels in rock, hard rock, punk, powerful blues and metal (in standard or lower tunings, depending on your playing style). Its fast neck and upper-fret access make it equally comfortable for solos and thick rhythm parts.

The sound

The combination of mahogany + Les Paul format provides a warm, dense and richly voiced foundation with plenty of natural sustain. The Epiphone 650R (neck) and 700T (bridge) humbuckers, equipped with ceramic magnets, add a more responsive and powerful character: tight lows, a pronounced attack and an ideal output level for pushing an amplifier or overdrive. The two volume / two tone controls allow you to quickly fine-tune the balance between the roundness of the neck pickup and the bite of the bridge pickup, while retaining the characteristic versatility of a Les Paul.
