Epiphone presents the Les Paul SL™, the most affordable 2-pickup Les Paul ever made with a slim lightweight Poplar body with powerful Epiphone Ceramic pickups. Available in six exclusive colors—Ebony, Heritage Cherry Sunburst, Pacific Blue, Sunset Yellow, Turquoise, and Vintage Sunburst.
Body and Soul: Since the beginning of rock ‘n’ roll, the Les Paul has been considered the ultimate electric guitar and Epiphone’s new Les Paul SL™ continues that long tradition of innovation with a lightweight Poplar body that’s slimmer than a vintage Les Paul making it easy to hold for new players. The bolt-on Mahogany neck has a traditional 24.75” scale with an easy-to-play SlimTaper-D profile. Even the headstock of the Les Paul SL™ has the look of a classic Les Paul with Epiphone’s trademark “Clipped Ear” design, the same “Bell-Shaped” truss rod cover seen vintage models, and 60s era Epiphone logo and a "2017" Edition logo on the back of the headstock.
Epiphone Ceramic Pickups: The Les Paul SL™ is powered by Epiphone single coil Ceramic pickups with a 650SCR™ in the neck position and a slightly overwound 700SCT™ in the bridge position for solos. Mr. Les Paul, the inspiration for the Les Paul guitar, was especially fond of single coil pickups for their tonal versatility when playing rhythm and solos. Ceramic pickups are designed to provide a tight low-end response with both a smooth mid-range and a slightly more pronounced top end tone. That’s why ceramic magnets have been a favorite of metal and hard rock guitarists for decades. Controls include a master volume and tone with traditional Black ABS “Top Hat” knobs.
Rock Solid Epiphone Hardware: The Les Paul SL™ features Epiphone-designed hardware with a "Wrap Around" Stopbar Bridge Combo and Premium Covered 14:1 ratio heads for fast and accurate tuning. An optional hard case is also available.

A class of its own.
Exceptional features, outstanding sounds and a consistently high level of quality are the basic recipe for the Ovation Pro Series.
Over the last five decades, Ovation has made a name for itself through groundbreaking developments and modern designs, especially in circles of advanced and professional musicians. Legendary world stars have been swearing by the instruments of the American high-end maker for decades, and so model names such as Balladeer, Legend and Elite contribute significantly to the name recognition of the Ovation brand to this day. All these historic models, with their specific features, are combined in the Pro Series and still form the core range of Ovation Guitars.
Legend
One of the many stories about this guitar series tells of how Linda McCartney wanted to give her husband Paul an Ovation guitar for Christmas because he thought it was so great. In the end, an Ovation Legend ended up under the Christmas tree... in the left-handed version, of course.
When Ovation developed the Legend series, they were looking for a special sound concept that would enable the guitars to not lose energy in any frequency range. Full basses, clear trebles and strong mids.
A harmonious body – a tuned body
As with all Ovation guitars, the hand-selected wood top is applied to a Lyrychord® bowl. Since Lyrachord® resonates at a clearly defined frequency, the top could be designed to resonate at a complementary frequency. The result is a "tuned" guitar body that produces a full, smooth sound.
An A for an X.
Most high-quality Ovation guitars use cross-braced reinforcing braces called "X-bracing" to stabilise the top. To better support the material's ability to vibrate, the reinforcements on the Ovation Legend Series are placed in an A-shapealong the grain of the wood. This "A-Bracing"
significantly improves resonance in the mid and bass ranges and contributes to a balanced sound across all frequencies.
Ovation Legend – it’s one of a kind.
