Les Paul Modern Specifications

The guitar itself is a Les Paul Modern, known for its player-friendly features. It boasts an Ultra-Modern weight-relief system for enhanced comfort and a SlimTaper mahogany neck with a Modern Contoured heel, allowing for superior access to the upper frets.

The body is crafted from mahogany and topped with AAA-grade maple, while the fretboard is made of ebony with a compound radius.

Modern appointments include locking Grover Rotomatic tuners and versatile electronics.

The guitar is equipped with BurstBucker Pro and Pro Plus pickups wired to dual volume and tone controls, featuring push/pull functionality for coil-tapping, out-of-phase tones, and a tone circuit bypass.

Additional specifications include an aluminium Tune-O-Matic bridge and stop-bar tailpiece, a Graph Tech nut, and 22 medium jumbo frets. Each guitar comes with a standard hard-shell case.

While the build and features align with the high standards of the Les Paul Modern series, the unique sublimation-printed graphic truly sets this Custom Shop edition apart. This process involves carefully applying heat and pressure to ensure the artwork seamlessly integrates with the wood.

Pricing

The Serj Tankian Foundations Les Paul Modern is available now, priced at $7,499.
