Overview

Vintage tone and modern playability.

The Gibson Les Paul Modern Lite electric guitar brings together the best of classic Les Paul sound with modern enhancements for comfort and versatility. This Les Paul Modern Lite features a SlimTaper mahogany neck and rosewood fingerboard that make playing along the fingerboard smooth and easy. Equipped with 490R and 498T humbucker pickups, you'll get that fat, rich humbucker tone Les Pauls are known for. Two push-pull pots give you the option to tap the pickups for single-coil tones, adding sonic variety. For guitarists who want authentic Les Paul power with effortless playability, the Gibson Les Paul Modern Lite is a superb choice.

The Quintessential Les Paul Playing Experience

With its familiar weight-relieved mahogany body and arched maple top, the Les Paul Modern Lite feels and plays like a true Les Paul thoroughbred. The comfortable asymmetrical neck profile and smooth rosewood fingerboard provide hours of playing comfort. With its versatile pickup configuration and authentic Les Paul vibe, the Les Paul Modern Lite is the perfect creative tool for studio work and the ideal guitar for gigging musicians who need one versatile axe for every occasion.

Slim Mahogany Neck Profile Makes Playing a Breeze

The Gibson Les Paul Modern Lite has a SlimTaper mahogany neck that feels natural and comfortable in your hands. The smooth satin finish along the back of the neck allows your fingers to glide up and down effortlessly. Whether you're ripping through solos or chording rhythm parts, this slim neck profile reduces hand fatigue. The angled headstock also provides ideal string tension for tuning stability, resonant tone and makes bends smooth and easy to control. From the first chord, you'll appreciate how playable this Les Paul Modern Lite is.

490R and 498T Humbuckers Serve Up Legendary LP Tone

This Les Paul Modern Lite comes loaded with a 490R humbucker in the neck position and 498T humbucker in the bridge. Together, they produce the deep lows, sparkling highs and thick midrange Les Pauls are revered for. From warm, rounded jazz tones to growling rock and metal distortion, these pickups deliver. Their Alnico V magnets provide dynamics and touch sensitivity, cleaning up beautifully as you lower your guitar volume. For fat humbucker sound with definition, the 490R and 498T are voiced perfectly.

Two Push-Pull Pots Add Single-Coil Versatility

While the 490R and 498T humbuckers serve up that big Gibson sound, the two push-pull pots give you tonal variety. Pull up on the master tone pot and you can split the neck pickup into single-coil mode. Pull up on the master volume and you can split the bridge pickup. This allows for thinner, bitey tones that are great for funk, blues and country styles. With both pickups split, you can get glassy Strat-like tones. The push-pull pots make this Les Paul endlessly flexible for any genre.
