Epiphone Jerry Cantrell Wino Overview

Inspired by the Alice in Chains guitarist's prized wine red axe, the Epiphone Jerry Cantrell "Wino" Les Paul Custom is teeming with the acclaimed musician's personal touches. This solidbody electric guitar boasts a maple-topped mahogany body with 9-hole weight relief and head-turning multi-ply binding. It includes a Custom Cantrell neck taper for a comfortable vintage feel, along with a bound, 12-inch-radius, 22-fret fingerboard that ensures easy access to thunderous riffage and blazing-hot leads. Alnico Classic PRO and 98T PRO pickups churn out everything from classic humbucker tones to a veritable sludge factory of sonic textures, while Grover Rotomatic tuners and a Graph Tech nut ensure rock-solid tuning stability. This axe also includes traditional block fingerboard inlays, a personalized "Jerry Cantrell" truss rod cover, a "JJ" logo on the rear of its headstock, and elegant gold-plated hardware.

Incendiary humbucking pickups
