If you have a feminine or delicate frame (not judging) a Les Paul may not be your instrument of choice.

An ultralight balsawood instrument may better suit your delicate needs. I know people like that so no shame.

Most often their ‘back pains’ are not related to a heavy guitar, though.

I always recommend that they play more and do resistance training instead of being pussies.

Nobody wants to be a pussy, right?
Not sure what I said to gain such attention, but please do tell.
 
I got this one 22 years ago for my 50th birthday. Straight from Kalamazoo. It's a great guitar, but at a bit over 9 1/2 lbs, I can only go about 45 mins to and hour before my back gives out. I once had it press enough on the nerve in my shoulder that my left fingers started to get numb.

When I was at the factory this past August, I tried out one of these. At about 6 1/2 lbs, I don't have any issues.

Though I'm not a fan of gold, that is a nice looking guitar. I think anyone would be proud to suffer through strapping that one on. Gold isn't necessarily a minus, it just doesn't age well, imo. If that is a recent photo of yours, after 22 years it's holding up well, mint.

I almost wish they had more mass. I like it.
