UTILIZATION

The handle is enjoyable, the same color as the body. It is a little larger than the other guitars (fender strato, Squier ...). The bend is easier to do with my other guitar (Yamaha Pacifica 112), one can make aisment three semitones.
CHAC is relatively easy to acute (not perfect but already well-trs).
This gives a good sound trs! Just SOON grant, the solos are easier to do than on my Yamaha. Agreements Sotres property, as Artificial harmonics (the conduct of the screw at the neck pickup with the doight). In short perfect or if it was not the weight a tad heavy (very acceptable for a les paul), and handle a tad too big.

SOUNDS

It offers good sound but the TRS agreements kinds lens too if you play with a lot of shaking. I use a Marshall MG30DFX, a Vox 30 watt and 30 watt fender. The guitar comes trs property suits the style of tous.Elle Rock, Pop, Heavy-Metal (finally acceptable), Country (yes!), And Jazz.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for two weeks, and I'm thrilled! I love this mixture of white black and gold. Prmire the time I received his check, she silent beautiful! I clean the microphone every time you play APRS, PSK it dirty quickly, and I always range in his chest. In short she has a good qualitprix (about 1200 on thomann), it has a nice look and sound good, so perfect apartment and handle the weight (see use). I suggest for those / who want buy and eSite.

Mahogany body
Maple Table 2 rooms
490R and 498T pickups
For me finish excellent but not perfect

UTILIZATION

Channel 59 rounded, less than 50 large and thicker than a 60, it suits me perfectly.
Set in a luthier, perfect response to the handle trussrod.
Action flush frets, I had the pot with the handle: 1.8 mm - 1.5 mm at the 12th fret, even without any frisette emphasizing a few (10-46 shooting).

SOUNDS

Haaa ... These microphones are great! More versatile than burstbuckers, they keep the "fat" and Gibson can still fetching big distos while maintaining a sound set.
Endless sustain!

OVERALL OPINION

Excellent model, which is not always the case with current studio.
It was actually reduced from the previous series, which, compared to the support, absolutely does not sound (slightly hollow body has a place) ... Moreover, I like it well, less back pain in sight.
A word of advice: try before buying, this one was in the store and remember the bad models are rarely sent for exhibition (avoid the net ...).

Is it still possible to post an opinion on the Les Paul really brings something to the discussion? I'm not sure, but I'll try to summarize all the positions that you may have with respect to this great instrument.

With regard to the characteristics, know they have varied with time. The les paul from the early 90 had an ebony fingerboard, Gibson then only use the rosewood.

The 90 match at the beginning of the production studio of the series, and also at the time Gibson has no mechanical Gotoh put on the head and ... it was a big mistake! These are actually more expensive (and ugly) as excellent mechanical as Grover that last a lifetime, while they only last 10 years. Like what, the prestige of a trademark does not summarize the manufacturing quality of their instruments.

Few other things to say, less vintage mics sound on a standard (I will return to this later), no binding (the better I always found this process quite ridiculous and expensive for what it brings the final aesthetic), the slice is the same as a standard, the handle is stuck (for better sound in the end).

I have the color ebony good to know: if the les paul was popularized in black at the base, because Uncle Lester was that it would better suit his ... Like what

UTILIZATION

Access to acute: I personally offsets. For me, the LP is not a guitar shredder. I play very often, however, after the twelfth box, but do not feel embarrassed either.

The handle is downright awesome (and it's the first thing that attracted me to this scratch): I have a preference for the ebony fingerboard which is much more difficult and on which slide more easily than the rosewood. That said the sound is loaded with bass, which is not an advantage on a guitar as massive as the LP.

Massive, I said ... Yes it is very heavy. But I think it gives a certain style guitarists who play it, a form of restraint and sobriety in the game scene that avoids some excesses that we observe with love the stratocaster. But it is a pure matter of taste. Note that since 2008, Gibson LP manufactures lighter, much lighter (more enjoyable) but the sound is slightly different: less fat, more sustain and resonance ... I think it's a good thing (unlike the great defenders of the Les Paul), the sound is much more fun.

Rah, do you get a good sound easy? ... NO! It is loud and clear, and I say without question. But it highlights the challenge: make a les paul sound, you will be comfortable on all other guitars (as opposed to a stratum that is far from a guitar teacher). It is also the magic of scratch who played on Paul, because ultimately, it is a tool that completely restores your game. Practice and you'll have a really magical sound, I promise.

SOUNDS

I play with a ENGL savage and I do not use pedals.

The sound of the les paul ... Really indefinable, it is one of the strangest guitars that the land could bear.

We find crystalline cleans (and a little empty) in bridge position and really magical innings. We always say "yeah take for Fender clean" but I protest, the LP stands up very well at this level, and I do not want another scratch for my clean sound!

In crunch it gets really amazing, it grabs the sound of choice riffs, powerful warm, clear ... But this depends heavily on what you plug it! Choose your gear, because we will counterbalance the weight of the scraper with sound material in hi mid busiest.

In saturated fat is both powerful and completely destroy the LP keeps a certain definition, however, some clarity even if the sound tends to twist and from completely balls. In short you will understand, turn the gain with this guitar can change everything!

With regard to the conflict "vintage / modern" I want to make a small note: the Les Paul does not sound "vintage"! You plug it into a Vox AC30 there I want to believe you, but hey do a little list of scratch playing on LP: Bread, Jimmy Page, Green Day, Slash, Indochina, Neil Young, etc.. You see a common thread between these scratch?? I mean, some vintage sound and others do not ... This confirms what I said, this guitar is interdependent with that on which you plug and the way you play. To you to make it sound! As for friends BC Rich, Jackson and others, know that these guitars are made to have a neutral sound: what you hear is the microphone, not the guitar. The Gibson does not sound as can be in your dreams, but they at least have a personality at the violin making, unlike these guitars are so neutral popular among teenagers aged 15 followers of the formula "

In terms of its alleged sustain legendary, I was quite disappointed. Know that there is a way to adjust: the angle between the bridge and the tailpiece should be as large as possible, and similarly, the status of your frets and your nut to sustain final part. As soon as I made the necessary repairs, I edit to say whether it gave a real difference.

For micro ... I was difficult at that level, I asked Seymour Duncan over but hey, the mahogany wood is resistant to a new sound from the microphone so in the end, it has only brought a new sound color to all. This is especially the magnet that will bring a different coloration to the scratch (I do not advocate the alnico 5, it sounds just too weird with the LP). To you to try new combinations ...

OVERALL OPINION

It's been three years since I use it and I really made the rounds ... But something continues to fascinate me in it which I chose to keep it and not switch to a Fender or a Rickenbacker for example ... (Yeah I know, it looks like I'm talking about a chick)

I have often wanted to sell it and buy a different gear, but ultimately I am with, and I prefer to continue to customize rather than start from scratch with a guitar whose sound I tired probablment very quickly.

I advise you, but I would especially recommend to try and be sure before buying it, because with the LP, we are satisfied or very quickly or very quickly disappointed.

UTILIZATION

In terms of ergonomics, the handle is ass enjoyable and playable trs, Access in acute as it is less glorious but still playable ....
In terms of weight I would say that is a Lespaul Lespaul not lgre ... but bearable!
The sound as it is extremely clean, especially trs powerful!!
If you have a bad sound with this guitar is that your amp is bad!!

SOUNDS

Sometimes I use it for blues and rock and is also your exact impcable!
The 498R provides a powerful bass sound (blues), the 498T sounds more acute and sharp!
Its clear the sound is clean, has nice ring to it, sounds a amricain !!!!!

OVERALL OPINION

I use this guitar for 6 months, c'tait a dream for me to have a Gibson and I'm really not due to my investment!! Trs is a good and versatile guitar trs good quality for an affordable price trs! I ssay many japanese in the same price range and none had the same that the magis lespaul!

OVERALL OPINION

Yes yes yes I do it again this choice although the price is high and Gibson plays on the brand to sell on the guitars that could be more polished finishes and Technology (tune o matic mythical not practical when you change your strings ...)

Benchmarks "Trapeze"
2 humbucker pickups 490R and 498T Alnico
2 volumes and 2 tones
A 3-position selector
Tune-o-matic / Stop bar tailpiece
Chrome hardware
Color "Red Wine" slightly revealing the wood grain

UTILIZATION

Mine date from 2004
This guitar is quite heavy (nothing to do with the new LP from the market) but you get used when it is well balanced.
The handle is big enough, it's a good "breeze block". I find it great fun to play rhythm or plans Ceratina solo rock but the size of the handle may bother some people.
Easy access to acute and tune-o-matic is great for everything "palm mute", the portion of the hand fits all alone.
The curved table (based on a table violin) is very nice.
The pickups are good, to play rock or metal.

SOUNDS

This guitar is very suitable for rock, hard rock / etc, the sound is a bit greasy but that's what I want.
One can also make the metal with, see extreme metal but in this case we need to change the pickups, the Alnico too I just found for this kind of music.
One can obtain a clear interest in playing with the buttons but overall tone is a guitar that is more for saturation (well at least for me).
The've tried it on the transistor and the lamp, in 2 cases it's still good even if I have a preference for a good old Marshall JCM 900 2-body (I find this config great for rock / Stoner) but it is very well on a small transistor amp (Peavey or other) also play at home.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for around 6 years, I am still very happy.
Before I played on an Ibanez Silver Series and when I plugged in the Les Paul Wow!
I tried an SG Standard, too, the handle is thinner but I prefer my Les Paul sound level.

What I like about it is weight, sonoritée (a little fat with a good gain), the tune-o-matic super nice for the "palm mute", the handle (it is a "breeze block" but a "paraping" pleasant).
The price / quality ratio is very good (890 euros in hand) but watch out for new series that have nothing to do and in my opinion too expensive for what it is (too small and of lower quality finish especially in level of the varnish).
Which can disturb it are big enough stick.
I would definitely do it again this choice

NB: Provide for the strap lock guiatre does not fall with a strap.

Made in the US, 22 frets if I do not talk nonsense, the rest is a gibson studio 92 what

UTILIZATION

When I bought it at the time, I found it very heavy, but I was immediately seduced by the "gibson", namely, full of serious, sustain, and so on. To the big rock, I have not found better.

Channel super nice when I do a solo on a song, it is what I use. I feel comfortable with it, but obviously, it's been 20 years (devil) that I have, it also plays a lot.

on the other hand, it is not super versatile, you must love his sound and not try to play like a telecaster for example.

SOUNDS

Settings for a long time now, I prefer the simple
guitar - cable amp.

By playing on the volume that I can vary the sound of a fat to almost clear (but beware, once again it is a gibson, even at a volume that task).

For now, I've played on Marshalls JCM, the Mesa Boogie tube and my faith deposit that severe. I hope to make it taste a Orange one day, but it will first deliver my finances afloat ...

OVERALL OPINION

For the low-end Gibson, I have found my guitar, but I play in a blues rock record, hard, rock and roll that lends itself to playing with this guitar, I'm not sure you can use in any style ...

I love his face (burgundy), sound, easy to play on the handle.

I also have a telecaster, a MusicMan Luke II, and a Hagström Viking, but to the Les Paul Studio that invariably when I turn my sound I want to print on a piece of me ...

This guitar is basically the introduction for someone who wants to get into a Gibson Les Paul guitar. This is the Gibson Les Paul studio guitar which is basically a standard version but with without the quality wood components et cetera et cetera. It's still a great sounding guitar and you get a very Les Paul tone no matter how you play or with whatever amp you're playing it with. These are a lot less expensive compared to most of the custom guitars and their standard plus guitars.

This is a fine instrument for the budgeted musician and it's a great sounding guitar with its wine red color, it's almost looks like it's swirls in the paint job. It's a darker red color so it's not a Ferrari red or a racer red color but more of a black mixed with a red swirl. It's a nice-looking guitar with the black knobs in the pearl block inlays for the fretboards. Overall it's a good guitar for someone who doesn't want to spend a whole lot of money or wants to keep their budget under a thousand dollars.

SOUNDS


The tone of this guitar is very Gibson Les Paul no doubt about it. It sounds like any other Les Paul you you have ever heard before. It's a guitar that features a mahogany body and mahogany neck with the rosewood fretboard. You get nice pearl block inlays within the frets to volume control knobs and two tone control knobs.

This guitar sounds spectacular with a Mesa boogie amp or a Marshall JCM 800 amp, or just a solid high gain amplifier that just mixes very well. We had this exact guitar in our band for a while and it sounded very good through our Mesa boogie Mark lll and our marshall DSL hundred watt amp. It's a great rock 'n roll tone and the pickups we had it were the normal burstbucker pickups. I'm not really a fan of the burst bucker pickups but this sounded really good in this guitar. I highly recommend this guitar to anyone you need to get solid mahogany rock 'n roll guitar.

OVERALL OPINION

These guitars come in new right around $1300 or you can find them on the used market for just a little less than this if it's this model but some of the older Gibson Les Paul studio guitars that were not chambered usually run a few hundred less than this price new and sound a little bit better then these new chambered studio guitars. I recommend this guitar to anyone who wants to get a Gibson Les Paul tone and doesn't want to spend more than $1500 to do it. This is a great guitar a great sounding guitar and will serve your needs very well for gigging or recording session.

UTILIZATION

The handle is very nice fingers "slide" on it ... literally
The access to acute could not be easier ... even the guitar to little fingers will get there! <img class="smiley" src="/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="" />
The ergonomics are very good in general despite the weight of the guitar ... but it is a Gibson among others ... slightly different anyway ... it weighs maybe a little heavier than the other versions by studio finishing "all brushed steel" ... That said, it seems that the body is not full ...
Nothing to say about the sound, I tried a dark studio, if the finish creates a difference, it is, I think, very small ...

SOUNDS

It is well suited to my style of music even if it is part of a "panel" sounds ... So I would say rather that it fits well my collection of guitar!
Good presence, the warmth of a Gibson!
With this guitar, you get to cover much of the "spectrum" ... fat to "almost" crystalline ... but always with great precision.
For my part, I have a preference for sounds mediums ... good presence and "subtlety" of sound.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a few months ...
The characteristic I like most? "/>
ALL! It has the sound of a Gibson but in a very original finish!
This guitar is also released in limited edition ... 500 copies!
It's simple, body and handle are painted in silver gray, all lifts are brushed steel, which gives a very unusual side to this guitar.
Little more about this model ... and rare in Gibson (even on more expensive models): the mechanical oil bath! All (brushed steel, matt and metallic paint) is very successful! In addition, it is sold in hard case dressed in a beautiful silver-gray fabric, too ... which gives a certain class to the whole guitar / case ... one side "precious" itself!
I wanted a Gibson, so I tried several before choosing this one ... his question, the differences are not obvious between a studio and a custom ... but the price, it is very different ... Then I came across this guitar look very original ... and I cracked! "/>
So again this choice? Yes, definitely! But even if it is that this model is still available ... I found a site that references the guitars "unconventional" and limited editions ... but that did not sell ...
A month of research to finally order it in England ... found in France!
This ...
Enjoy!

It's a gibson studio 1991, so the keys are ebony and I love this hit. The handle is very nice, thinner than other Gibson I've tried. I like the single cutaway so I find it ergonomic, but it's subjective

UTILIZATION

The handle is for me a highway. This guitar has great sustain, I tried an sg faded and a studio recently, it has nothing to do. The note never stops, it's great. I found super micro but I had not found a suitable gibson me at the sustain and playability,

SOUNDS

For sounds, I put a video on youtube, a cover of wake up by mad season, you will understand, I use a blackstar ht5s a cry baby wah. This is the perfect guitar for solos. In his clear, I love it. For heavy rhythms, it's not a guitar made for that, I have two custom 77, with a seymour SH4, the other with the dimebucker. With three guitars I have all the sounds I like.

OVERALL OPINION

played with for a month, I had tried other Gibson did not suit me (I often do not like the sleeves that I find too big, although it is good guitars), I also played on sg faded one that disgusted me, so it was rotten. There are excellent Gibson, but I think the quality is very very very uneven. Much buy my custom 77 on the net with your eyes closed as much a gibson it must absolutely try to avoid any unpleasant surprises. I loved this guitar so that I sought another in Alpine white (mine is red wine) but only 90 years max 2004, before it's too expensive and then I not too confident. I recently played a new studio, it is lighter so less sustain, and small defects in finish, the sound was OK, but the rosewood fingerboard bother me. For those who love Gibson but do not want to ruin or divorce is the perfect guitar

UTILIZATION

For my part, I find the handle very nice, it's not too big (for LP) and glides well. Like all the LP, it is its weight but it is correct. Level stability on the other hand, nothing to say. The guitar does not move a hair. The access to treble is not the best in the world but it is playable. I easily found a sound that suits me with the microphone serious but it was a different story with the microphone acute that I always found too rough. What bothered me the blow position as intermediary. I have since changed the pickups to put ESP LH200. And my children, at all the same story. The sound is nickel on the 3 positions, as in clean distortion. It sounds a bluesy wish.

SOUNDS

My style of music and rock and blues instead. Say I'll easily Who and Led Zeppelin to Iron Maiden through ACDC, Guns, SRV and Rory Gallagher. And this guitar has no problems even with the original pickups to manage all this. Since I am not a follower of fact to find the sound of one or that one by changing the settings, I can not tell you what is obtained by changing parameters. Pltuot I found the sound that pleases my ears and fingers after they are doing the rest. The amp I use at the present time is a ValveKing VK 112, which goes very well with this guitar. But I admit that a Vox AC15 or a Peavey Classic 30 would make me very happy. Mechanisms have been changed to Tulip has Gotoh locking, the tuning is better.

OVERALL OPINION

I use for 1 year and a half and I do not sell it for anything. This guitar has been a favorite, I entered the store, I saw, I bought it. I must confessed that due to the acute Paulita. Thereafter, the only thing that displeased me a little was acastillage Black (pickguard, pots, and seélecteur entourage microphones). I have to change that and while passing standart finish (cream and gold). since it gives me a supermodel.
despite the changes I make, I have no regrets and I do it again this election if the opportunity presents itself

UTILIZATION

cort x2 I used before with a handle really flat and I was afraid of the handle that several friends have told me quite thick.
But in reality it is pure happiness !!!!! This handle is very comfortable to play than it is for the agreements or solos.

The interface is pretty good I can not find it heavy unlike what they say and my Cort is far from being a reference even if it's worth it for a beginner.

I use an Ebony Gold Hardware in 2010 and finish is excellent in every detail. I just wish the threads and bindings but I knew he had not the studios.

The only small downside is access to acute. Play the 17th cargo is not a problem but when we have to go pull a note in the 22nd when freight solo Knockin on Heavens Door "It is not hot.
Standing with a good strap is not too hard but sat down, every time I sometimes have to "consider" the guitar slightly to get there and every time I'm afraid it does not slip from my hands .

Even if access is difficult to treble from the cargo the 19th, that's not enough to lower my grade.

10/10

SOUNDS

Here we get down to business.
Many say that the studio is not a real Gibson but mine is quite true!
Everything depends on the models they say that they must try to avoid any unpleasant surprises.
But I ordered this guitar on the internet on a rant. Like what chance does sometimes things well. I compared it with a Les Paul with a friend and was amazed by the sound of my studio.
The sound in clean neck pickup is fat enough for the agreements but the sound is warm and truly exceptional.
Sound bridge pickup is very good but less "done" for agreements with its a bit more garish.

on the other hand in distortion is happiness really is excellent provided you use a good distortion.
I use a fender frontman 15g and clean is very good but the drive is not terrible. on the other hand with a good distortion pedal that changes everything.
I have tried it on a Marshall JVM 410H and the sound is really beautiful. Prefer tube amps if you can

After some adjustment I found THE sound gibson and everything changes!

10/10

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 3 weeks and I'm still happy.

I tried another studio, a sg standard, an Epiphone les paul slash appetite, a Les Paul and Les Paul Custom for fun ^ ^ and honestly, my studio at the sound outclasses any other than the custom . Even if the Epiphone pickups mounted with seymour duncan n'entire slash signature does not hurt at all, especially distortion.
on the other hand level finishing, custom and traditional are still ahead. Even if mine is already excellent.

Most
The sound-

For 999 euros I had a real les paul that would fade over a les paul standard

With the experience I would do this choice with your eyes closed. But when even tried the model in question if you can, because several friends have fallen badly.
Personally I did not do for one simple reason: I live in Switzerland and the music store where I often go to the studios to 2,500 francs and 1,000 francs on thomann ... the choice was quickly made.
Incredible

The Gibson Les Paul Studio is made in the USA and is truly one of the best guitars ever made. It has two pick ups with tone and volume knobs for each, as well as a switch to choose between the pick ups. It's a basic set up, but one that has been copied over and over again.

UTILIZATION

The neck of the Gibson Les Paul Studio is extremely fluid and the guitar is very easy to play. It is easy to play all around the neck, including the top notes, which makes it easy to rip solos high up on the neck. The guitar isn't extremely light, but isn't all that heavy either. It is very easy to get a good sound from the Gibson Les Paul Studio, and the tones are pretty versatile to boot.

SOUNDS

The Gibson Les Paul Studio is great for pretty much any type of music, but excels in rock and pop music. I usually plug this guitar into a '76 Fender Twin Reverb amp, but it will really sound great no matter what amp you are using and will also sound good either clean or with some overdrive or other effects. Overall, an awesome sounding guitar that has a tone all of its own.

OVERALL OPINION

I've been using the Gibson Les Paul Studio for about five years and all of the hype about how great this guitar is is definitely true. I love the sustain and full bodied sound that I get with this guitar, whether it be for recording or for live shows. The Gibson Les Paul Studio isn't cheap, but it is designed for professionals who want the best guitar they can get. Even though it is expensive, it is still attainable for the serious musician. Overall, the Gibson Les Paul Studio is a classic guitar that every guitarist should try out.
