Epiphone Power Players Les Paul Iced Blue (short scale)

The Epiphone Power Players Les Paul is a 3/4+ youth size electric guitar inspired by Gibson's flagship Les Paul model — an iconic instrument played by guitar heroes that include Slash (Guns N' Roses), Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin) and Peter Frampton! This compact beginner guitar is specifically designed for young and aspiring musicians who want a cool-looking, rock-ready axe from the get-go. It's not just a "first guitar", it's a forever guitar!

Built to a great standard and sporting a feature-set inspired by its real Gibson counterpart — you'll struggle to find many starter guitars with the elevated specs, feel and playability of the Epiphone Power Players Les Paul. It has a slightly undersized Mahogany body and a short 22.73" scale length, which make the guitar both light and easy to play, while its high-quality components guarantee solid tuning stability and a big, inspiring sound.

The Power Players Les Paul also comes equipped with a gig bag, strap, picks, and a guitar cable. All you'll need is an amp to plug into, and you will be all set! It might cost a tad more than other beginner instruments, but the Power Player Les Paul's ideal size, stunning look and tremendous tone will encourage you to play with confidence and learn faster!

Key Features

• Mahogany Body & Neck — When it comes to building affordable guitars, many brands will resort to using cheap woods that don't sound very good. Not Epiphone! Their Power Players Les Paul boasts a full-fat Mahogany construction, just like Gibson's USA models. It sounds rich, it sustains, and it's strong!
• 22.73" Scale Length — Slightly shorter than a standard 24.75" Les Paul scale length, which means that the frets are brought a little closer together and the string tension is lower. This scale is therefore perfect for smaller hands that are stretching and building finger strength! The unique short-scale design also makes the Power Players Les Paul a viable travel guitar choice for experienced players.
• SlimTaper 'D' Neck Shape with Sculpted Heel — A neck profile based on a popular Gibson shape, which offers brilliant playing comfort. The back of the neck has a sculpted heel where it joins the body too; providing generous upper-fret access.
• Epiphone 700T/650R Humbuckers — These authentic Epiphone pickups deliver the thick and powerful sounds that Les Paul guitars are known for, ideal for rock, punk and metal styles! Each pickup has its own dedicated volume/tone controls, and there's also a 3-way selector switch; letting you experiment with different timbres.

Included Accessories

• Gig Bag — Take the guitar safely to lessons without worrying about dings and scratches. Features a useful front zip pocket for storing accessories.
• Guitar Cable — Allows you to plug the guitar into an amplifier or tuner. Features a right-angled jack optimised for connecting to the instrument.
• 3 Medium Picks — You can never have too many plectrums! These medium-thickness picks are versatile enough for any style and good for beginners.
• Guitar Strap — Black nylon strap is durable and easily-adjustable; letting you set the perfect instrument height.
