Epiphone Adam Jones 1979 Les Paul Custom, Antique Silverburst Overview
Multi-platinum-selling and four-time Grammy Award winner Adam Jones, from the band Tool, is one of rock’s most talented and sonically innovative guitarists. Now, Epiphone has partnered with the Gibson Custom Shop to create a new model that pays tribute to what Adam calls “one of my top favorite guitars of all time” - his Silverburst 1979 Gibson Les Paul Custom.
It has a three-piece maple neck with a custom Adam Jones profile, an ebony fretboard, and a mahogany body with a maple cap. Finished in Antique Silverburst, it also features a Custombucker pickup in the neck position and a Seymour Duncan Distortion in the bridge position, along with CTS potentiometers and Orange Drop capacitors. It also has a Gibson “open book” headstock profile and even comes with a replica two-inch convex mirror included in the Deluxe Protector Series hardshell case.
