The Gibson Les Paul Modern Lite incorporates the quintessential form of a classic LP with a lighter, thinner, streamlined all-mahogany body. One of its standout features is a belly contour on the back of the guitar for an ergonomic playing experience, in addition to a SlimTaper neck for deft movement anywhere on the fingerboard. For the first time ever on a Core Les Paul model, the Modern Lite also includes a matching headstock to cap off the impressive solid-color satin finishes. Sonically, the LP Modern Lite traverses a broad swath of ground, containing a PAF-style 490R humbucker in the neck position and a sizzling-hot 498T in the bridge. The Gibson Les Paul Modern Lite is a no-nonsense rock machine, built for guitarists who prioritize speed and agility to bring their musical ideas to life.
