Gibson Les Paul Custom
Gibson Les Paul Custom
I used a Gibson Les Paul Custom in the demo because it’s a super familiar benchmark for high gain amps—thick, punchy, and immediate. It’s a great way to hear how the EMPIRE handles heavier pickups and big rock rhythm tones without losing clarity.
Pros
- +Classic thick humbucker tone for high gain
- +Great sustain and authority for riffs and leads
Cons
- -Heavier feel compared to some more modern super-strat style guitars
