Gibson Les Paul Studio

Sam Ash was among the earliest supporters of accessible yet authentic Les Paul models, and the Les Paul Studio embodies that legacy. This guitar delivers real Les Paul tone and feel into a stripped-down, affordable package—without compromise.

Pickups: Burstbucker Pro Power

Loaded with Gibson USA Burstbucker Pro humbuckers, this Studio version gives you classic PAF warmth with modern punch. The Alnico V magnets bump the low end and tighten up the attack, while wax-potting cuts hum and squeal. Twist the volume knobs and unlock coil-splitting—to mix in some sharp, single-coil tones whenever you want.

Weight Relief & Comfort

Worried about Les Paul weight? No more. The Ultra?Modern weight?relief carving in the mahogany-body reduces heft without sacrificing resonance. Pair that with the fast-playing SlimTaper neck, traditional heel, and bound rosewood fingerboard, and it’s a marathon-friendly setup—smooth, balanced, and easy to play all night.

Neck Profile & Playability

The SlimTaper mahogany neck is a hallmark of Gibson’s most comfortable designs. It delivers a fast, modern feel that’s equally at home with chordal comping and high-octane leads. The traditional heel joint adds classic stability, while the newly bound Indian rosewood fingerboard offers a silky glide under your fingers. Whether you're gigging, recording, or just noodling for hours, this neck makes it effortless.

Why We Love It

It’s a Les Paul in every essential way, but lighter, friendlier, and easier to play—all while keeping that unmistakable tone we’ve counted on since 1952.
