Modern 7-String Les Paul Custom for Metal
The Epiphone Matt Heafy Les Paul Custom Origins 7-String Bone White marks the third signature model in the successful collaboration between Epiphone and the frontman of the Florida metal institution. Based on the classic LP Custom design, the 7-string electric guitar impresses not only with a timelessly elegant look, but also with playing and sound characteristics optimally tailored to modern metal. While the Modern Weight relief and the fast "SpeedTaper D" neck promise first-class handling, the voicings of the active Fishman Fluence Custom Series Matt Heafy pickups provide a rich spectrum of classic and modern metal sounds. High-quality Hardware in the form of a LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge with matching Stopbar and tuning stable Grover Locking tuners completes the Matt Heafy Les Paul Custom Origins Bone White by Epiphone.
The Epiphone Matt Heafy Les Paul Custom Origins 7-String Bone White combines traditional looks with modern playing characteristics and premium metal tones.
The Axcess Heel makes the "SpeedTaper D" neck of the Matt Heafy Les Paul Custom 7-String easy to play up to the highest registers.
Classic style, seven strings and modern handling
When designing the Les Paul Customs Origins 7-String, Matt Heafy and Epiphone paid special attention to the ideal combination of the traditional "Tuxedo Look" and a handling perfectly tailored to the playing techniques of modern metal. While the Modern Weight relief of the mahogany body makes it much easier to contest long and action-packed shows, the Axcess Heel on the back allows unhindered access to the highest registers. The flat "SpeedTaper D" profile of the glued mahogany neck also promises comfortable playing characteristics, so that any riff or solo, no matter how complex, can be achieved with ease on the 22-fret ebony fingerboard. The extended 25.5" scale length (648 mm) also guarantees a clean response of all seven strings.
The volume and tone controls on the Matt Heafy Les Paul Custom Origins 7-String feature push/pull switches for changing the voicing of the Fishman Fluence pickups.
Fishman Matt Heafy pickups
As pickup on the Epiphone Les Paul Custom Origins 7-String naturally Matt Heafy's Fishman Fluence Signature h umbuckers are used, which elicit diverse metal sounds from the guitar amplifier with multiple voicings. The Fishman Fluence Custom Series Matt Heafy humbucker on the bridge, equipped with ceramic magnets, accordingly stands for a Modern Active sound with maximum Output and tight response even with drop tunings and high distortion, or for an extremely powerful sound with the organic Attack of passive pickups. The Fluence Custom Series Matt Heafy Alnico neck pickup, on the other hand, delivers a full and finely articulated sound in Modern Active mode, while the second crisp voicing provides the perfect foundation for fluid soloing. For both Fishman Fluence Matt Heafy humbuckers, a single-coil vo icing is also available for glassy pearly tones.
Grover Locking Rotomatics with Tulip wings keep the Matt Heafy Les Paul Custom Origins 7-String securely in the correct tuning.
Professional hardware equipment
Last but not least, Epiphone equips the Matt Heafy Les Paul Custom Origins 7-String Bone White Signature guitar with high-quality Hardware that handles studio sessions and long engagements or the road with professional reliability. The LockTone stopbar guides the strings over the proven LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge, which is firmly locked on its retaining pins, and whose generous adjustment options guarantee precise intonation and comfortable string action even when using powerful strings and low tunings. On the headstock in the Epiphone Kalamazoo Style, Grover Locking tuners also ensure accurate and robust tuning of the electric guitar.
