Lightweight Power with Classic Les Paul Tone

A Lightweight Powerhouse
This model features an all-mahogany body with a thinner profile and a rear belly cut, making it lighter than traditional Les Pauls. A satin nitrocellulose lacquer finish highlights the wood grain and introduces a matching headstock, a first for a Core Les Paul model.

Modern Styles: Lightweight design offers comfort during energetic performances and complex riffing.
Studio & Practice: Straightforward controls and reliable tuning hardware make it ideal for sessions and home use.
