Key Features
The Gibson Les Paul Modern Figured is a fusion of unmistakable Les Paul design with modern comfort and tonal enhancements for the modern player. Utilising Gibson's Ultra-Modern Weight Relief process, the traditional slab of mahogany for the body is made lighter for enhanced comfort when playing live or in the studio for long sessions, without compromising tone. Atop the mahogany body is a stunning AAA-grade maple top in a beautiful burst colour that lets the natural grain of the wood shine through.
For navigating around the frets, the Gibson Les Paul Modern Figured features the fast-playing SlimTaper neck profile. Comfortable and sleek, you can navigate around the smooth ebony fretboard with ease and access to the upper frets is unchallenged with the Modern Contoured heel joint. Not just a guitar for playing strummed rock chords, the compound radius flattens the fretboard for lower and cleaner action across the frets, making it ideal for both riffs and blistering solos.
High-quality hardware is used throughout, with Grover locking Rotomatic tuners and an aluminium Nashville Tune-O-Matic bridge for tuning stability, helping alleviate the problems with traditional Les Paul Designs. Burstbucker Pro pickups are used with complex push-pull controls to access single coil and P-90-style sounds in one guitar, making it a truly versatile and dynamic instrument, fit for any genre and playing style.

Designed with the modern guitarist in mind, the Les Paul Modern Figured features a SlimTaper neck profile.
