Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The Wine Red Satin Les Paul Modern Studio updates the familiar single-cut shape with an Ultra-Modern weight-relieved mahogany body, maple top, and a slim body profile. Its SlimTaper neck uses a compound-radius, bound ebony fingerboard, with a contoured heel for a smoother route to the upper frets. The 490R and 498T humbuckers retain their standard voices, while push-pull volume and tone controls add coil tapping, phase reversal, and pure bypass. A soft-shell case supports transport.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Stage or studio sessions where a lighter, slim-bodied Les Paul format is useful.
- Parts that move from lower-position chords into lead work above the 15th fret.
- Players who want push-pull pickup options without changing guitars mid-session.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Left-handed players; this model is specified right-handed.
