The popular Epiphone Tribute Series—long known as a gateway into the world of Epiphone guitars for countless new players—expands with the Epiphone Les Paul Tribute Plus. This model delivers the legendary Les Paul look, tone, and feel in an instrument designed for beginner and intermediate players who want a high-quality guitar that encourages growth and creativity.
Overview
The Les Paul Tribute Plus features a classic Gibson Les Paul-shaped mahogany body, carved and bound for an elegant, traditional look. Its AAA flame maple veneer top adds visual depth and a premium aesthetic that stands out on any stage. The bolt-on mahogany neck has a fast and comfortable 60s SlimTaper Rounded C profile, while the sculpted heel joint ensures smooth, effortless access to higher frets.
A bound laurel fretboard with 22 medium jumbo frets and pearloid trapezoid inlays provides a familiar and inviting playing surface. The 60s Kalamazoo-style headstock completes the look, fitted with reliable die-cast tuning machines for solid tuning stability.
Powered by a pair of Epiphone humbuckers—a 650R in the neck and a 700T in the bridge—the Les Paul Tribute Plus offers the signature warmth and punch that define the Les Paul sound. Both pickups use powerful ceramic magnets for a strong, articulate tone, and under the nickel covers are zebra coils that add a subtle vintage flair.
An Epiphone LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge and Stop Bar tailpiece deliver easy setup, rock-solid stability, and exceptional sustain. Designed to perform as good as it looks, the Les Paul Tribute Plus is a perfect choice for your first serious electric guitar or as an upgrade that will continue to inspire you for years to come.
An optional Epiphone gig bag or hardshell case is available separately.
