Would love to find an original custom “lite “…. I have lusted after a purple one since kingdom come debuted back in the day. I didn’t give a shit about them….but that guitar though….
Cool guitar, I found the later one in my avatar pretty cheap—around $1500. I’ve seen them for sale as high as $22-2500 tho. And they aren’t particularly light either—this one is 8.5lbs.

I would look for an early 90's Gibson LP Studio with the ebony boards. Usually they will be bland colors but sound and play so well and slip through the cracks for reasonable prices.
I had one of those back in the day and it was kind of a dog—had those 500t ”hot” pickups in it and a skinny neck. Straight up 90’s Gibson Studios tho are great guitars!
 
I just remembered......I have a studio with emg's at mom's. 81 and 85. Fuck my mind is shot. 90's model. My brother's.......lol....
 
I've been thinking of taking a chance on a cheap one with p90s.
I had one of those les Paul of the month years ago with h90’s. They were coil tapped. Nice guitar but they just didn’t grrrchugg enough for me at the time. So like an idiot I got rid of it.
 
IDK about your price range, ESP Eclipse (E-II, LTD) worth a look IMO

Ltd’s are nice. I had a white double bound ctm. Like a dummy…gave it away.
