The Les Paul Studio Figured Top is a guitar you’ll find hard to put down. Designed to be the perfect companion for any musical genre—whether you’re playing live or recording—it’s the kind of guitar you’ll always reach for. For years, the Les Paul Studio has been the go-to choice for guitarists who want classic Les Paul features—humbucker pickups, a mahogany neck, and a mahogany body with a maple cap—at an accessible price point, without the more elaborate and costly aesthetic appointments found on higher-end models.

The Les Paul Studio has been reimagined to be more versatile and better than ever. The Les Paul Studio Figured Top features an ultra-modern weight-relieved mahogany body, making it lighter and more comfortable for long playing sessions. Its carved AA figured maple top adds a stunning visual element while contributing to a brighter, more defined tone. This is complemented by the warmth and midrange punch of the mahogany body, delivering the iconic Les Paul sound that has been a staple on stages and hit recordings worldwide for decades. The mahogany neck is securely glued in, ensuring strong resonance and sustain, while the SlimTaper neck profile makes it effortless to play.

The neck also features a traditional heel and is topped with a bound rosewood fretboard, complete with acrylic trapezoid inlays and 22 medium-jumbo frets. The 12" fretboard radius makes playing chords and lead lines easier, allowing for smooth string bending without the risk of notes "choking out." Vintage Deluxe tuners with Keystone buttons enhance the guitar's classic aesthetic. Complemented by a fully adjustable aluminum Nashville Tune-O-Matic bridge, a lightweight aluminum Stop Bar tailpiece, and a Graph Tech® nut, these components ensure exceptional tuning stability.

The versatile electronics of the Les Paul Studio Figured Top offer a wide array of tonal options. It features two Burstbucker Pro pickups wired to a three-way selector switch, allowing you to use each pickup individually or in combination. Each pickup has its own volume control, equipped with a push/pull switch for coil-tapping, providing two distinct sounds per pickup. Additionally, each pickup has a dedicated tone control for even greater tonal flexibility. This broad range of sonic possibilities—combined with outstanding sustain, resonance, and smooth playability—makes the Les Paul Studio Figured Top an excellent choice for any musical setting, from home practice and recording to jam sessions and live performances. Refined and updated for the modern player, this is the essential Les Paul—a guitar you can always rely on. Now available in an exclusive Dark Purple Burst nitrocellulose lacquer finish.
