In all seriousness, I don't know how possible it would be to re-radius a fretboard. Then again, I don't even pretend to be an expert. Likely your best choice is to try and find a guitar that already has a radius closer to what you need, which in a Les Paul style guitar might be hard to find. Maybe one that loosely based on that design? Or you could find a custom builder that would build to suit your needs. Or if you don't mind a bolt-on neck, that might open up more possibilities.
