The Les Paul Modern Lite in Cardinal Red Satin pays tribute to its Les Paul heritage while incorporating contemporary elements that set it apart. Crafted with a solid mahogany body, with no additional top layer, this iteration of the Les Paul adopts a more streamlined form, blending tradition with innovation to create a lighter and slimmer instrument. Its ergonomic design includes a contoured rear belly, ensuring a comfortable connection between the player’s body and the guitar, all while preserving the distinctive Les Paul silhouette.
The mahogany neck, adorned with an Indian Rosewood fingerboard, is shaped to the SlimTaper profile, striking a harmonious balance between speed and comfort. Precision takes center stage, with a nut width measuring 43.053mm and a scale length of 628.65mm, resulting in a finely tuned instrument catered to the demands of players. The fingerboard boasts 22 GraphTech-equipped frets, tastefully accented with acrylic dots, seamlessly merging functionality with a refined visual appeal.
At the core of the Les Paul Modern Lite are the open-coil 490R and 498T Humbuckers, delivering a broad tonal spectrum that amplifies the guitar’s versatility. Dual volumes and tones provide exacting control. The hardware features an Aluminum Nashville Tune-O-Matic bridge, Black Top Hat knobs, an Aluminum StopBar tailpiece, and Grover Mini Rotomatic tuners, all plated in chrome. The Cardinal Red Satin finish introduces a touch of elegance to the guitar, complemented by a soft shell case for protection.
