Electronics & Features

The biggest attraction of this model is its incredibly versatile electronics package.

The dual EMG 85 humbuckers provide powerful, articulate tones with exceptional sustain, clarity, and low noise performance. They excel for rock, hard rock, metal, and high-gain applications while still offering impressive clean tones.

The integrated L.R. Baggs piezo bridge adds an entirely different sonic dimension, allowing the guitar to produce convincing acoustic-style sounds directly from the instrument.

Using the dual output jacks, players can route the magnetic pickups and piezo system independently to separate amplifiers or PA channels, or blend them together for unique hybrid tones. This makes the guitar exceptionally useful for live performance, recording, and cover-band situations where maximum versatility is required.

Tone & Feel

This guitar can cover an incredible amount of musical ground.

The EMG-equipped electric side delivers powerful sustain, tight lows, and clear articulation, while the piezo system provides bright, detailed acoustic textures that work beautifully for clean passages and layered arrangements.

The SlimTaper neck profile feels comfortable and fast, while the traditional Les Paul construction provides the familiar feel and sustain players expect.

At exactly 10 pounds, it has the substantial feel of a classic Les Paul while remaining balanced and comfortable.
