"THE guitar for any style of music from country to heavy ass metal!"

Feature:
The features fit the guitar perfectly. I love it :)

Quality:
It's a sturdy guitar. I feel like it'll never break, and the finish is just outstanding. I have the Alpine white finish, it looks so good hanging from the wall, it's like a million dollars up on the wall. lol

Value:
Yes, this guitar is worth every penny.

Desirability:
The guitar is sexy, definately has a 10/10 sex appeal. It's just crazy how good this instrument feels, looks AND sounds.

Sound:
The Sound is absolutely amazing. It sounds like any other Les Paul Standard or Custom, but it's cheaper than the other ones. That's best thing about this guitar, the price; I couldn't believe it when I saw $1,319 for a Gibson Les Paul. I was stunned.

Ease of Use:
The neck is just so smooth, and the body is so sleek, it's just the perfect guitar (what else would you expect from a Gibson?)

Support:
Didn't need any. It's a Gibson!

"BUY THIS!!"

Feature:
While playing this model down south, the gold hardware over the nice Alpine white body just gleamed. It reminded me of an expensive chandelier found in Victorian era ballrooms. lol

Quality:
This product was made more than well; the guys at the Gibson Factory did the best they could to the best guitar at an affordable rate.

Value:
The Studio's price is not as high compared to a Standard. But, it costs a little more than an Epiphone Elitist...Maybe?

Desirability:
It's actually a beautiful piece of work having gold hardware on an Alpine white finish.

Sound:
Of all the Gibsons I've heard and played, nothing came close to the sound of an original Les Paul Studio. It sounded cool with a clean tone, but amazing with distortion.

Ease of Use:
Although it is pretty hard to go up the neck with some LPs, the Studio makes it much easier and more comfortable to shred up to the 22th fret even. And it's also a 60s profile, so it's firm and smooth, not fat and bulky.

Support:
There wasn't really a problem with the Les Paul, nonetheless, it's perty costly!

Overall:
With all being said, the Gibson Les Paul Studio is at the top of my list.

News
The Les Paul Studio enhances the solid, proven design of the world's most famous guitar with a wide choice of finishes, a sleek, no-frills look. The Les Paul Studio is the favorite of guitarists who demand traditional Les Paul performance with a modern attitude.

About the Les Paul Series
No matter where Gibson Les Paul is seen - in the hands of a star performer, silhouetted in a guitar dealer's ad, or cast in brass and incorporated into the architecture of a restaurant - it is universally recognized as the symbol of rock and roll music. From the basic no-frills guitars to elegant showpieces, the guitars of Les Paul are the standard-bearers of Gibson's excellence.

Warranty
In 1894, in a one-man shop in Kalamazoo, Michigan, Orville Gibson created a new family of guitars and mandolins that would inspire generations of craftsmen to produce some of the finest instruments the world has ever heard or seen. The Gibson Mandolin-Guitar Co., Ltd., was formed on October 10, 1902, to build instruments that carry on not only Orville's designs but also his conviction to quality.

Gibson celebrated its 100th anniversary in 1994 with the spirit of Orville still going strong. Gibson's combination of traditional craftsmanship and innovative technology has made Gibson the only company that produces industry standard models in every style of fretted instrument, from electric and acoustic guitars to mandolins, banjos, and resonator guitars.

The Gibson Gold Warranty carries on the tradition of the limited lifetime warranty introduced by the company's founders. It represents their commitment to producing the world's finest musical instruments and providing complete customer satisfaction.

Gibson Gold Warranty
Your new Gibson instrument is warranted to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the original retail purchaser, subject to the limitations contained in this warranty.

If at any time this Gibson instrument malfunctions as a result of faulty materials or workmanship, Gibson will repair the defect(s) or replace the instrument, as it deems appropriate in its sole discretion. Gibson reserves the right to use materials regularly utilized at the time of repair in the event that original materials are no longer available, If replacement of your instrument is deemed appropriate by our staff, Gibson will replace the instrument with one of the same or most similar style of a value not in excess of the original purchase price of your instrument.

This warranty covers the cost of both labor and materials on any repair deemed necessary by our Customer Service Representative for the lifetime of the original purchaser. In the unlikely event that your instrument is destroyed, lost or damaged beyond repair, while in the possession of Gibson for repair, Gibson will replace that instrument with one of the same or most similar style of a value not in excess of the original purchase price of your instrument. Any insurance covering the instrument, including but not limited to collector's value insurance, must be carried by owner at owner's expense. For more info please refer to the Gibson website.
