The Les Paul Modern Lite embodies the classic style of the Les Paul but with a new, thinner all-mahogany body that is both lighter and well-balanced. The body also features a belly cut on the rear for additional playing comfort. The mahogany neck features a rosewood fretboard and fast-playing SlimTaper profile. The Les Paul Modern Lite is powered by open-coil 490R and 498T humbucker pickups, which provide a wide range of sonic capabilities that are perfect for any style of music. Available in five attention-grabbing satin nitrocellulose lacquer finishes and for the first time on a Core Les Paul model, each Les Paul Modern Lite also includes a matching headstock, adding to its visual appeal. A soft shell case is also included.
