I play in a covers band at the moment as a past time - I use this guitar to play the cleaner sounds of 'Wonderwall' and 'let it be' to the more gritty 'All day and all of the night' and 'mustang sally'. It has been commented on by a range of musicians on how diverse the sound of this guitar is - it suits well most styles and types of music. Obviously a good Amp contributes to this - I use a Marshall, which compliments the tone superbly. Other than the amazing sound produced by th...more

OK, every Gibson, no matter which model, except signature models, use the same pick ups for all their guitars 490's and 498 humbuckers, so technically a Gibson "Custom" will sound as good as a "Studio", all except for one thing-THE PRICE. A Custom costs around 1900.00 quid, and a Studio, well minus 1000.00 anyway. A Gibson "Studio" in wine red with gold hardware, is a very good looking guitar, and when amped up, it sounds awesome, with the sustain lasting longer than Fenders due to their glued set necks as opposed to screwed in ones, you can pluck a string, go for a walk come back, have lunch, go back to it and it will still be ...  Read the complete review

A little cheaper although still a Gibson (215 words)

At around £700 you may not think that this guitar is an actual Gibson. Let me reassure you, it is. I myself own a Gibson Les Paul Studio in Emerald Green and Gold and this guitar is every bit as good as the Les Paul Standard (£999). The finish, pickups body and neck are exactly the same as the Standard. The reason you save over £200 when purchasing the Studio over the Standard is the fact that Studio has no bindng from the body to the neck, ( the plastic trim running arond the body and neck of the guitar). The electrics are amazing and for for £700 you get the most beautiful shimmering finish. When I put it through my Carlsbro GLX 100 Watt amp the variety of tones, ...  Read the complete review

Gibson Les Paul Studio: Meaty, Beaty, Big and Bouncy.... and a bit cheaper (668 words)

In the seventies, bedroom guitar gods usually went one way or the another. Those who wanted to be Eric "Slowhand" Clapton usually bought a guitar in the style of a Fender Stratocaster and practiced 'Layla' and solos that lasted the best part of a fortnight. However, those who were slightly more intrested in Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page and his satatnic antics were more inclined to play a Gibson Les Paul-esque axe and occasionally make hurrendous noises attempt Page's party trick of playing guitar with a violin bow. The reason that most bought guitars in the style of their heroes as opposed to the same models was the huge prices charged ...  Read the complete review

A Gibson without the hefty price tag (232 words)

I purchased a LP Studio mainly because of its attractive price - I didn't, at the time, think I was good enough to warrant spending over £1000 on a guitar, however I still wanted the iconic Gibson tone and sound. After my purchase 5 years ago the guitar has not let me down once and, to be honest, I haven't really felt the need to upgrade to a more expensive version (Standard, Custom etc.). I play in a covers band at the moment as a past time - I use this guitar to play the cleaner sounds of 'Wonderwall' and 'let it be' to the more gritty 'All day and all of the night' and 'mustang sally'.

Gibson Les Paul Studio: Les Paul Studio - still a Gibson LP, only cheaper! (255 words)

When I set out to buy a guitar for my 17th birthday, I had no idea how lucky I was going to get. As soon as I lay eyes on it in the shop I was in love. Visually, all Les Paul's are very attractive, and the Studio comes with a significantly lower price tag, which is very nice! Mine is a nice cherry red, and while the finish may not be as amazing as the LP Custom models, as soon as you plug it in, you really won't care about the paint job. In short - it sounds amazing. It possesses this really rich, full tone, with a lovely fat low end and a singing high end. With a touch of distortion added to it this guitar sounds formidable, even when you've got it pretty quiet, it ...  Read the complete review
