Epiphone is proud to present the third signature model designed in partnership with Trivium’s extraordinary talented Matt Heafy - the Matt Heafy Les Paul™ Custom Origins. It features a pair of custom-voiced Fishman Fluence® pickups. Each delivers three distinct tones. The Alnico neck pickup provides a modern, active, high-output Alnico humbucker™ sound, a crisp, clean, and fluid neck humbucker sound, and a glassy, scooped, hi-fi single coil sound. The Ceramic bridge pickup offers a choice of modern, active, high-output ceramic humbucker tone, high-output passive ceramic humbucker tone, and a cutting, overwound single coil tone. These tonal options are selected with push/pull volume and tone pots. The maple-capped mahogany body has modern weight relief for hours of comfortable play, and the mahogany neck has a fast-playing SpeedTaper™ D profile and a contoured heel for exceptional upper-fret access. Gold hardware, including locking Grover® Rotomatic® tuners with Tulip buttons, and classic Les Paul Custom cosmetics make this a standout guitar on-stage. Available in Ebony and Bone White gloss finishes. A custom hardshell case is included.
