In Keeping with previous iterations of the Studio model, the reimagined Gibson Les Paul Studio takes the core, most influential elements of Gibson’s most famed electric guitar design and strips back the rest to create the most cost-effective, accessible, American-built Gibson Les Paul to date!

Utilising the tried and tested combination of a Mahogany body with a set Mahagony neck and a carved Maple top with a duo of humbucking pickups, this Les Paul has all the rich harmonic sustain and midrange thump that helped put Gibson Les Pauls on the map. Its Ultra-Modern weight-relief system helps keep this Les Paul feather light and its duo of Burstbucker Pro pickups offers classic PAF tones with added depth and aggression, perfect for modern playing styles. Other upgraded features include a new assortment of gloss Nitrocellulose finishes with complimentary plastics as well as cream binding around the fingerboard and vintage-styled tuners. With its included soft shell bag the reimagined Les Paul Studio is the perfect workhorse Les Paul!

Key Features

  • Slim Taper – Gibson’s Slim Taper neck is the perfect balance of speed and comfort.
  • Versitile Electronics – With its duo of Burstbucker Pro in partnership with its push/pull coil-splitting volume controls, the Les Paul Studio has just about every tone covered.
  • Soft Case Included – The Gibson Les Paul Studio comes equipped with a luxuriously fitted Gibson Soft Shell case. Protect your Les Paul in style and rest easy knowing your Gibson is safe and secure at home or on the road.

Burstbucker Pro

Sometimes the answer is simply, more! The Burstbucker Pro takes the core foundation of Gibson’s most-loved pickup design, the PAF, and makes it more with the addition of Alnico 5 magnets. They still maintain the complex musical harmonics, crystal highs and rich midrange but with an added fatness and weight to the notes along with enhanced attitude and power. These pickups can do everything from the sweet dynamic tones of Gibson’s golden era all the way to earth-shattering chaos. Thanks to the Les Paul Studio’s coil-splitting capabilities it’s easy to find the perfect sound no matter what genre you’re playing.

Ultra-Modern Weight-Relief

Gibson’s most thoroughly thought-out weight-relief system produces the lightest Les Paul possible without any sacrifice to the famed Les Paul tone! Continuing from where Gibson’s Modern weight-relief system left off, the Ultra-Modern system pushes things even further in the quest to strike the optimum balance between tone, weight and resonance. Each of the systems holes has been carefully calculated to ensure that this Les Paul Studio is as light as possible while still maintaining the typical solid body mid-focused thump that Les Pauls are famous for and not stepping into more semi-hollow tone territories. It also ensures that the balance between the head and body remains the same.

Stuff About Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.

Stuff About Guitars

Guitars cover a wide range of instruments designed to suit different styles, techniques, and sounds, from acoustic and classical models to solid body, semi-hollow, and hollow electric designs. Factors like body shape, scale length, neck profile, string type, and pickups all influence how a guitar feels and responds, making each type suited to different players and musical approaches. Whether used for rhythm, lead, songwriting, or experimentation, guitars are expressive, versatile instruments that form the heart of countless genres and playing styles.

Stuff About Solid Body Electric Guitars

Solid body electric guitars are built from a solid piece or pieces of wood, giving them excellent sustain, stability, and resistance to feedback at higher volumes. This construction makes them well suited to amplified playing across a wide range of styles, from clean and articulate tones to heavy, high-gain sounds. Their design allows pickups and hardware to play a major role in shaping tone, while the solid body provides a consistent, reliable feel. Solid body electric guitars are valued for their durability, versatility, and ability to perform confidently on stage and in the studio.
