Tried and tested sound, new outfit
With the Gibson Les Paul Modern Lite, Gibson is attempting to give the well-known Les Paul a modern face while retaining the basic features that have made the model so popular. Below you will get an overview of the specifications of the new Gibson Les Paul Modern Lite.

Corpus
The body is made of mahogany as usual, only it is a little thinner. The Les Paul Modern Lite has a belly cut to make it more comfortable to play while standing.

neck
A rosewood fretboard with a 12” radius sits atop the mahogany neck with a quick-playing slim taper profile. Overall, the new model scores with its low weight and very good playability.

pickup
Of course, the right pickups are a must for the perfect sound . The classic Gibson combination of 490R and 498T pickups delivers a whole range of different sounds that cover a wide range of genres.

bridge and controls
An aluminum Nashville Tune-O-Matic bridge with an aluminum stop bar ensures perfect intonation. The classic control layout of the Les Paul, consisting of two volume and two tone controls, has of course been retained here.

finish
The guitars are painted with a wafer-thin, satin nitrocellulose lacquer, which prevents the wood from vibrating less. The open-pored finish makes it easy to see and even feel the grain of the wood.

Colors
The headstocks are painted to match the color / finish of the body, which perfectly rounds off the modern look of the guitars. The Gibson Les Paul Modern Lite is available in five different, eye-catching colors. With these guitars you are sure to get the attention of the audience!
