Description
Gibson Les Paul Studio Session - Translucent Ebony Burst
The Les Paul Studio has long been the "workingman’s" Gibson—a guitar built for the grind of the studio and the stage, stripping away the frills to focus purely on tone. The new Gibson Les Paul Studio Session takes that workhorse mentality and elevates it with premium appointments that usually live on Custom Shop models. At its core, you still get the classic formula: an Ultra-Modern weight-relieved mahogany body that saves your back during three-hour sets, paired with a stunning AA figured maple top that adds a three-dimensional depth and a sharp, articulate snap to your notes. This isn't just a tool; it's a showstopper.
Under the hood, the Studio Session is a tonal chameleon. It comes loaded with a pair of legendary '57 Classic humbuckers—a '57 Classic in the neck for those warm, creamy PAF-style leads, and a slightly hotter '57 Classic Plus in the bridge to drive your amp into singing saturation. But the real magic is in the push/pull controls, giving you access to coil-tapping, phase switching, and a pure bypass mode that sends your signal straight to the jack for unadulterated power. Whether you’re chasing the thick, sustaining textures of The Edge or the aggressive punch of modern rock, this guitar adapts to you.
Playability is where the Session truly shines. The mahogany neck features a fast SlimTaper profile and a Modern Contoured Heel, letting you reach the highest frets with zero resistance. Best of all, it’s topped with a bound ebony fretboard—a luxurious touch often reserved for the Les Paul Custom—providing a slick, glass-like surface that makes bends effortless. With its sleek Translucent Ebony Burst finish and black nickel hardware, this is the ultimate evolution of the Studio platform, ready to be the centerpiece of your collection.
