GIBSON LES PAUL STUDIO BLUEBERRY BURST
The Perfect Musical Companion
When a guitar is “the one,” you know it. It feels right in your hands and delivers the sounds you hear. This instrument becomes your faithful companion, musical soulmate, and muse. It helps you express your artistic vision. Designed with care, the Les Paul™ Studio is crafted to be precisely that type of guitar: the reliable choice you’ll reach for every time. Over the years, countless guitarists have appreciated its essential features—humbucking pickups, a glued-in set neck, and a mahogany body with a maple cap—offered at an accessible price.
Enhanced Design and Comfort
Moreover, the Les Paul Studio has been reimagined to enhance versatility and comfort. It features an ultra-modern weight-relieved mahogany body, making it lighter and easier to play for extended periods, whether you’re performing live or jamming with friends. The carved, plain maple cap contributes brightness and definition to your tone, perfectly balancing with the warmth of the mahogany body. This combination produces that legendary Les Paul sound, sought after in countless hit recordings and concert stages worldwide.
Playability and Aesthetics
In addition, the glued-in mahogany neck ensures a solid connection between the neck and body, enhancing resonance and sustain. The neck sports a traditional heel and a fast-playing SlimTaper™ profile, covered with a bound rosewood fretboard, complete with acrylic trapezoid inlays and 22 medium jumbo frets. With a 12” fretboard radius, you’ll find that both rhythm chording and lead string bending become effortless. The Vintage Deluxe tuners, equipped with Keystone buttons, boost the guitar’s classic appeal, while the fully adjustable aluminum Nashville Tune-O-Matic™ bridge and lightweight Stop Bar tailpiece ensure solid tuning stability.
Versatile Electronics
The Les Paul Studio excels in the electronics department as well. It boasts a pair of Gibson’s acclaimed Burstbucker™ Pro pickups alongside a three-way pickup selector switch, enabling you to engage each pickup individually or combine them. Each of the pickups is wired to its volume control, allowing for sound blending to suit your preferences. Moreover, the volume controls feature push/pull switches for coil tapping, offering two distinct sounds per pickup. Each also has its tone control to expand your sonic possibilities.
Conclusion
Overall, the Les Paul Studio provides endless tonal variations, exceptional sustain, and comfortable playability. It’s truly the one guitar you can rely on across various musical genres and scenarios. Reimagined for today’s players, it offers much more than just another guitar; it allows you to find your voice. Here it is—your essential Les Paul.
