Les Paul Ultra - A New Twist To A Rock Guitar Icon

(Press Release | Posted 2007-06-20)

No other guitar is met with such reverence as the Les Paul. Originally introduced by Gibson in 1952, the guitar is now the standard of excellence in soildbody electric guitars, sought after and played by top guitarists around the world. Now, Epiphone brings a new twist to this rock guitar legend and icon with the new LP ULTRA. While maintaining the key elements and integrity of a Les Paul, the ULTRA features a unique Mahogany body with strategically placed hollow cavities, providing not only a lighter weight (about 5.5 lbs) but also a more resonant sound.

Other unique features include a belly-contour on the back that comfortably hugs your body while standing, a slightly narrower nut (42mm) with a very fast, satin-finish neck, Epiphone's new LockTone Stopbar/Tuneomatic system and a rich Grade "A" Quilted maple top for outstanding looks.

The new generation of Les Pauls is here and it starts with the Epiphone LP ULTRA. Check one out at your Authorized Epiphone Dealer today!
