of the back and neck joint at the upper cutaway have been contoured to provide a heelless feel, and an unimpeded reach right up to the 22nd fret. No more stretching against the traditional neck heel to achieve the upper fret access that your lead style demands the Axcess gives you that legendary Les Paul playability all the way up the neck, welcoming you to take it right over the top. The one piece, 24 34" scale length, mahogany neck features a 22 fret rosewood fingerboard with pearloid trapezoid fingerboard inlays.To further enhance playing comfort, this smoothly carved neck joint is combined with a belly scarf aka ribcage contour that allows the body of the guitar to hug closely to your own body in the playing position without digging in. Add to these contours the Les Paul Axcesss slightly thinner body, made from weight relieved mahogany with a carved maple top available in Iced Tea Burst or Gun Metal Gray finishes and single ply cream binding on body top and youve got an instrument that is refreshingly light, and a pure joy to play either strapped on, or in a seated position.
