Introduced in 1983, the Studio was built around a simple idea: deliver everything that makes the Les Paul iconic, with a no-nonsense build that puts playability and tone front and center. Over four decades later that philosophy holds, and the Studio has become one of Gibson's most beloved models in its own right. The essentials are all here: mahogany body with maple cap, SlimTaper neck profile, bound rosewood fretboard, and a pair of Burstbucker Pro pickups wired to push/pull volume controls for coil tapping. All the tone, none of the fuss. A gigbag is included.
