Gibson Les Paul Studio 2019 - Tangerine Burst
The Les Paul Studio is known as a workhorse for live performances and recording guitarists at a very reasonable price. It boasts hot-rodded 490 humbuckers and versatile electronics as well as being beautiful. The nitrocellulose finishes laid over classic tonewoods combined with an ultra-modern weight-relieved mahogany body topped with maple provides you with the definition of a Les Paul.
The SlimTaper profile neck conforms naturally to your hand for smooth leads up top and fast licks down low.
The Les Paul tone is a is known for its meaty, full sound with solid sustain and rich harmonics. That's just what you get from this Les Paul Studio. That's because Gibson loaded this guitar with the killer combination of a 490R at the neck and a 498T at the bridge. These open-coil Alnico humbuckers take all levels of gain with ease, providing you with a smooth clean low-gain sound and aggressive crunch as you roll up the volume. Coil-tapping further expands the Studio's tonal options, offering single-coil quack and cluck with a pull of a volume knob.
