The Les Paul Supreme is the top of the modern Les Paul range: an AAA figured maple top, multi-ply binding on the top and headstock, an ebony board with mother-of-pearl Super Split Block inlays, and gold hardware. Ebony is the plain-top option.
It plays as modern as it looks. The mahogany body has Ultra-Modern weight relief, the fingerboard has a compound radius from 10 to 16 inches, rounder at the nut for chords and flatter higher up for bends, and Grover locking tuners hold the strings. A Burstbucker Pro and Burstbucker Pro Plus sit on push/pull controls that tap the coils, flip the phase and switch to pure bypass.
Four finishes: Fireburst, Translucent Ebony Burst, Wine Red and Ebony.
