- Is the Les Paul Modern Figured worth $2,300?
- If you want a figured top, an ebony board and modern switching in one guitar, it is a fair price. A Les Paul Standard costs less but lacks the compound radius, contoured heel and coil-splitting.
- How does it differ from a Les Paul Standard?
- The Modern Figured adds a AAA figured maple top, an ebony fretboard, a compound-radius neck, a contoured heel, weight relief and coil-split and phase switching. The Standard keeps a rosewood board and simpler wiring.
- How heavy is it?
- Gibson uses weight relief, but a mahogany Les Paul still runs heavy, typically in the 8 to 9 pound range. Try one in person if shoulder comfort matters.
- What pickups and switching does it have?
- It has two humbuckers with push-pull coil splitting and a phase switch, giving single-coil and out-of-phase tones alongside full humbucker sounds.
- What colors does it come in?
- It is offered in Seafoam Green, Cherry Burst and Cobalt Burst, all with a gloss nitrocellulose finish.
