gibson les paul classic black

Epiphone Les Paul CUSTOM????
ok so the epiphone les paul custom. I am wondering what kind of sound i can get from a guitar like that. i want a classic rock sound…. led zep, ac dc, boston…. pretty much any 70′s band. but i also would like it if i could play a bit faster stuff like EVH, black sabbath… 80′s metal. i am wondering if a epi les paul custom could produce that.
i have heard from some people that the epi custom is more of a blues guitar and thats not what i am looking for. also… does this guitar sound well with multi effect boards and pedals???
I am not saving for a gibson LP or anything like that. so thats out of the question
so if anyone could tell me what kinds of sounds it will produce that would be great
No Idea
