About the Gibson Les Paul Studio Electric Guitar
The Gibson Les Paul Studio delivers the core Les Paul recipe - a mahogany body, carved maple top and twin humbuckers - in a lighter, more streamlined guitar aimed at players who care more about tone and playability than fancy appointments.
Its mahogany body uses Gibson's Ultra-Modern weight relief to take some of the load off your shoulder during long sets, while the carved plain maple cap keeps the classic Les Paul look. The mahogany neck has a SlimTaper profile and a bound rosewood fingerboard that feels quick and comfortable for lead lines and string bends.
A pair of Burstbucker Pro humbuckers provides punchy, full-bodied Les Paul tone with plenty of sustain, and push/pull volume controls let you coil-tap each pickup for brighter, lighter sounds when a song calls for more variety. A fully adjustable Nashville Tune-O-Matic bridge and Vintage Deluxe tuners round out the hardware for dependable tuning. It suits rock, blues and recording guitarists who want a genuine Gibson Les Paul with a practical, player-focused spec.
What reviewers say
Premier Guitar's review of the current Les Paul Studio praises its clean setup and smooth fretwork, the vintage-feeling SlimTaper neck and the way the push/pull coil taps broaden its tonal range, and sees it as an affordable route to Les Paul Standard-style tone. Guitar World, reviewing a limited-edition Studio, also highlights how comfortable the weight-relieved body is. On the downside, there is no body binding, the maple top is plain rather than figured, and players who like chunkier necks may want a thicker profile option.
Pros
- Smooth fretwork and a clean factory setup
- Weight relief makes it comfortable for long sets
- Coil-tap push/pulls add lighter, brighter tones
- Les Paul Standard-style tone and feel for less outlay
Cons
- No body binding, so it looks plainer than the Les Paul Standard
- Plain, unfigured maple top
- Slim neck won't suit players who prefer a chunkier profile
