Epiphone

“When I think of art, I see both the visual and the aural as equally important, with one bolstering the other,” says Adam Jones, who selected the seven striking artworks beautifully reproduced on the backs of these guitars. The Epiphone Les Paul Customs are finished in Antique Silverburst, as an homage to Adam’s original 1979 Gibson Les Paul Custom.

For this unprecedented collection, Adam curated works by artists Mark Ryden, Frank Frazetta, Julie Heffernan, Korin Faught, and Ernst Fuchs. Epiphone will make only 800 of each model for this extremely limited-edition run.

The sixth model released as part of the Adam Jones Les Paul Custom Art Collection features Ernst Fuchs' “Anti-Laokoon 1965”.

Ernst Fuchs (1930-2015) was one of the founders of the Vienna School of Fantastic Realism. His work blended the fantastic, the mythological, and the spiritual, rendered in a naturalistic style. This notable work by Fuchs revives an ancient myth with a modern twist.

Each limited-edition guitar comes with a marquee back plate showing the name of the artist and artwork, a headstock featuring an additional design by artist Korin Fought, and a Protector hardshell case.
