Boasting many contemporary updates with the player in mind, the new Gibson Les Paul Modern features a lighter-weight body, a cutting-edge, asymmetrical-profiled SlimTaper neck with a genuine 22-fret Ebony fretboard and compound radius for superior playing comfort and incredible action. The new Modern Contoured Heel neck/body joint allows for uninhibited access to the upper frets, with superior sustain and stability.

The Les Paul Modern features upgrades to hardware and components, such as Grover Locking Rotomatic machine heads, and Burstbucker Pro humbucking pickups, giving a contemporary edge over traditional Les Paul-style guitars. Finally, loaded with a control layout featuring 4 push/pull puts, this guitar allows you to seamlessly travel between classic Gibson humbucking tones and single-coil P-90 sounds - two sounds which have carved countless genres across generations since being invented - as well as phase switching and pure bypass for a highly flexible and powerful tonal palette. The new Gibson Les Paul Modern is here to shape the sounds of tomorrow!
