The 2008 Epiphone Les Paul Ultra is a lightweight, chambered mahogany guitar with a quilted maple top, designed for comfort with a belly scarf and a satin-finish SlimTaper neck.

Special Features
  • Weight: Significantly lighter than traditional Les Pauls due to extensive chambering.
  • Optional NanoMag: Many 2008 models, specifically the Epiphone Les Paul Ultra-II, include a Shadow NanoMag pickup mounted at the end of the fingerboard, which requires a 9V battery for active acoustic-like tones.
  • Outputs: Features both mono and stereo output jacks

The Epiphone Les Paul Ultra (II and III) features a Shadow NanoMag pickup, a specialized low-impedance magnetic pickup located at the end of the fretboard that produces acoustic-like, shimmering tones. It acts as a hybrid, allowing blending of traditional electric humbuckers with acoustic sounds via dedicated controls and a 9V battery
