Last year, we rejoiced at the release of a Gibson's Jerry Cantrell 'Wino' Les Paul Custom, then subsequently recoiled upon hearing the bittersweet news that this Tom Murphy-aged beauty was going to retail circa £8000, and even if we could spare a kidney, there were only 100 being made!
So, if you missed out on Tom & Jerry's fantastic recreation of the Alice In Chains man's No.1 Les Paul, you'll be glad to hear that Epiphone has stepped up with not one, but two Jerry Cantrell signature models.
First up is an Epiphone version of the Jerry Cantrell Wino, and it's released alongside the Jerry Cantrell Les Paul Custom Prophecy. We'll start with the familiar Wino, which is made from the classic LP recipe of a mahogany neck and mahogany body capped with a layer of maple.
