Gibson Les Paul Studio Blueberry Burst Electric Guitar with Soft Case

General

For decades, the Modern Collection edition of the Gibson Les Paul Studio has been the go-to choice for guitarists longing for a genuine American-made Gibson with a shaved down price. This electric six-string basically gives you everything that a standard Les Paul does. So you get a rich and resonant mahogany body, but here, it's been treated to some Ultra Modern weight relief, making this model far less back-breaking than your standard LP - a real plus if you're up against long playing sessions. You also get the punchy tonal accents of a maple cap and, as a neat side-bonus, this guitar even comes with a Gibson soft-shell case.

The Les Paul Studio: Tonal Elasticity

The Gibson Les Paul is already known for its full and warm output, and the Les Paul Studio does anything but break with tradition. The Studio comes mounted with a renowned pair of Burstbucker Pro pickups: passive dual-coils that house alnico V magnets, giving them a touch more power than traditional alnico II pups and resulting in even fatter sound with even more drive and plenty of that necessary definition and clarity. Both of the mounted volume pots have a push/pull coil-tap function, so the humbucker loadout can be flipped into single-coil mode, doubling the tonal range and setting up this guitar for everything, whether it's blues, indie or punk, or straight-up rock.

Snug Playability

As per the Gibson recipe, the mahogany neck has been set into the body, boosting the sustain and enhancing the resonance in one seamless shot. This construction also places every last one of the twenty-two frets that line the Indian rosewood fretboard within easy reach, while the classic set of trapezoid position markers and cream binding add some signature Gibson style. In terms of hardware, you're getting everything you'd expect from an American-made axe: an aluminium Nashville Tune-O-Matic bridge and Stop Bar for a solid base, and a Graph tech nut and Vintage Deluxe machine heads complete with Keystone buttons for super-stable tuning.
