Epiphone Les Paul Custom PRO and Les Paul Custom, confused???

[mac60D]

NEED help! I purchased Epiphone Les Paul Custom PRO (supposed to be) but then having doubt that the guitar is not a Les Paul Custom PRO but Les Paul Custom, instead. I asked the staff from the store and told me that the guitar is a Custom PRO but written in the truss rod cover that the guitar is Les Paul Custom and he cannot explained how come it is not indicated as a pro. Anyway, the features of Custom pro is in it like the single coil tapping. Can anybody clarify these things? Thanks a lot.

Custom Pro will have "Les Paul Custom Pro" written on the truss rod cover.
The easiest way to identify them is by their neck. Custom Pro have a satin finish neck.
If yours is not a satin finish neck, then most probably it's a custom.

Anw, where did you get your guitar from?

I got it from Swee Lee, I checked it from the store, their staff told me that some of their custom pro comes also with the same truss rod cover. Though it comes with features like coil tapping via push/pull controls with normally found in Custom Pro. Does the Les Paul Custom also comes with this feature? How do I know if it comes with pro bucker pickups? it is gloss finished.
