When Gibson LP Studio Premire out the beginners in the 80's, they first taient Alder (!) And mahogany table + Rabl (thus normal) but less thickening of about 5mm (they used wood heavier then the final does not change).
Then they released a year for 2-3 MODEL Studio Standard (with simple binding) and a MODEL Studio Custom (with triple binding, and affects bne acastillage dor Deluxe Reissue PAF pickups).
Then they found a dsordre was in the range and they have stopped in 86-87.
Apart from the handle is a type 60 'Slim Taper (end, what), the Gibson Deluxe mcaniques of classical, etc..

UTILIZATION

It is a LP trs good, comparable to Standard & Custom (feeling more refined than usual Studio, its best Dfine also lighter, a little jazz).

SOUNDS

Like any good LP has done everything except change your amp or your fingers to account!

OVERALL OPINION

I had a lot of LP is one of the best (and most beautiful, the color of the table top is Tobaccoburst).
