Edition "Budokan" Les Paul are wired and ready to go. Like all Les Pauls, Ace's "Budokan" axe features a mahogany body with the same classic lines of the original with Les Paul Custom style multi-binding both on the top and back. And like Ace's original, the Epiphone Ltd. Edition "Budokan" is made with a 3-piece hard maple cap. As you would expect, Epiphone and Ace took great care to recreate the power of Ace's original Budokan Les Paul.
Each Epiphone Ltd. Edition Ace Frehley "Budokan" Les Paul Custom Outfit comes with a custom hard case with "Budokan" in white stencil, a numbered certificate, an unattached "Eagle" sticker, and presentation binder which also includes a photograph of Ace with his Epiphone "Budokan" Les Paul.
