This limited edition Music Rising Les Paul guitar was created by Epiphone to aid Music Rising, the charity helping to replace instruments and gear lost by New Orleans musicians in the devastation of hurricane Katrina. Musician's Friend is honored to partner with Gibson to help reverse the devastation suffered by the Crescent City's music community. 

The guitar features exclusive artwork along with the campaign’s slogan, “Rebuilding the Gulf Region Note By Note.” Adorned with a Music Rising graphic designed by U2's The Edge who co-founded the charity, the artwork has become a symbol of the campaign.

The guitar specs include all the features that have made the legendary Les Paul guitar synonymous with great rock tone including a solid mahogany body with carved top, glued-in mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard, Alnico Classic Humbucking pickups and stopbar/tunomatic bridge and tailpiece combination.  It also includes a custom Music Rising soft gig bag.
