Humbuckers have a fuller, smoother tone and suppress hum better, so they suit stronger distortion, solos and thick riffs. P90 pickups sound more open, raw and dynamic, but they can be noisier. Choose humbuckers for a safer classic rock sound and P90s for more vintage bite and attack.

Epiphone Jerry Cantrell "Wino" Les Paul Custom Dark Wine Red Electric guitar

Inspired by Jerry Cantrell's iconic Les Paul Custom, this guitar has many personal touches, including a Dark Wine Red finish over a plain maple top and 9-hole weight-relieved mahogany body, gold hardware, Grover Rotomatic Kidney tuners, an Alnico Classic PRO humbucker with a gold cover in the neck position and an exposed coil 98T PRO humbucker in the bridge position. The mahogany neck has a Cantrell custom taper, and Jerry Cantrell's name appears on the truss rod cover in white script, while a JJ logo appears on the back of the headstock. A custom hardshell case is included.
