Les Paul neck heel - taking the edge off

[sumitagarwal]

Some folks would probably find this blasphemous, but the corner of the neck heel always bugged me and I decided to do something about it.

Most modernized Les Paul designs go all-out in contouring the heel area and reducing overall mass there, but in my opinion it only really needs the smallest of tweaks to take out the point. If this was painted to match, I doubt anybody would ever notice by casually looking at it, but feels like it makes a world of difference to my medium man hands.

I don’t disagree with anything you said. Including blaspheme..lol. Some brown grain filler and a few shots of clear and that will disappear

Hah, you're not wrong, but mine only took me 10 minutes and seems good enough to me

That does look super comfy though...
