The masterful Matt Heafy
Riffs rain down from the sky. Matt Heafy has been on the scene for over 20 years now, having joined Trivium when he was just 13 years old! Now the only original member left, his riffs, savage screams, and huge cleans have been a steady ship for the band throughout the years, helping propel them to the top of the metal universe.
Spread your influence
Groundbreaking. Fishman Fluence pickups provide a universe of tones for you to play with. Renowned for having multiple voices – including active and passive – they'll bring your licks to life with their supreme articulation and powerful technology. Using push-pull pots, you can switch between hot humbucker and single coil sounds, giving you total tonal versatility.
With the active voicing, you'll get that super high output, an aggressive sound which is as crystal clear as it is tight. Cleans will be bright and defined, whilst high gain settings will roar thunderously with savage bite. The passive voicing offers its own unique tone, giving riffs that classic, dynamic well-rounded voice which powers through the mix. Both rhythm and lead licks will have everything they need to truly shine – you're in for a treat.
SpeedTaper D neck
Play our heart out. With the SpeedTaper D mahogany neck in your hands, you'll feel unstoppable as you plough through lick after lick in style. This profile facilitates fast playing, so you can shred through solos and lead licks without restriction. The mahogany wood itself adds a touch of warmth to the guitar's tone, whilst the ebony fretboard feels smooth and responsive when you’re playing. You'll feel liberated along every fret of this perfectly crafted instrument.
Rock-solid tuning
Locked in. Grover Locking Rotomatic tuning machines on the Les Paul Modern help to ensure that you always sound your best. They lock your strings in place, massively enhancing tuning stability. And they help facilitate swift string changes for additional convenience. There's also an Epiphone LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge, which provides unwavering support for each string. This guitar is sure to sing in tune whenever and wherever you play. It's Matt Heafy's pride and joy, and the fact that he has used his signatures for both recording and live shows is a testament to their quality.
Premium hard case included
The Epiphone Custom hard case included with this quality guitar guarantees protection in transit, or from dragon fire. Sturdy and durable, it'll give you the confidence to take this treasured guitar to any gig you see fit.
