Comfortable and distinctive

Ceramic magnet pickups

The Les Paul SL is powered by Epiphone single coil Ceramic pickups including a 650SCR in the neck position and a slightly overwound 700SCT in the bridge position designed for solos. Single coil pickups have been chosen for their tonal versatility when playing rhythm and solos and were always preferred by Les Paul himself. The Ceramic magnets deliver a tight low-end response, smooth mid-range and a slightly more pronounced top end. The characteristics of the tone can be controlled with ease via the top hat volume and tone controls as well as the ability to switch between pickups to achieve your desired sound.
