Epiphone Limited Edition Les Paul Custom PRO KOA

The Les Paul Custom PRO KOA is powered by Epiphone’s critically acclaimed ProBucker™ pickups, a 4-wire design with coil-splitting inspired by Gibson’s legendary BurstBuckers™. Epiphone ProBucker™ pickups recreate the sound of the original hand-wound “PAF style” humbuckers designed by Seth Lover in the late 1950s at Gibson’s factory in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Epiphone ProBuckers™ feature all the same ingredients as original “PAF Style” and BurstBucker™ pickups including Alnico II magnets, Elektrisola magnet wire, 18% nickel silver unit bases and covers, and pole screws, slugs and bobbins manufactured to Gibson’s original specifications. The result is a phenomenal pickup that over time will develop the subtle, one-of-a-kind characteristics that you can usually only find in vintage humbuckers. And best of all, those unique pickup characteristics will give your guitar a unique “voice.” No two vintage Les Pauls sound alike and ProBuckers™ will give your Epiphone Les Paul Custom PRO KOA a one-of-a-kind sound that will only get better the more you play.

The Les Paul Custom PRO KOA includes a ProBucker™-2 humbucker in the neck position that is slightly overwound for greater definition at higher volumes. The bridge pickup is a ProBucker™-3 humbucker, which is also slightly overwound to give your solos a wide tonal range. Both pickups feature coil-splitting via a push/pull control at each pickup’s volume knob, which gives the Les Paul Custom PRO KOA the ability to be any guitar you can imagine. Plus, there is a push/pull phase control on the neck position tone pot for even more sonic options. All volume and tone controls feature full-size 500K Ω potentiometers matched with Epiphone’s rugged, all-metal, 3-way toggle pickup selector switch for long-lasting performance.
