Gibson Les Paul Studio Session Translucent Ebony Burst

Gibson Les Paul Studio Session – a modern evolution of a classic legend

The Gibson Les Paul Studio Session is a refined and upgraded version of the iconic Studio model, developed in response to player feedback and requests. This model takes the Les Paul Studio to new heights, blending traditional design with modern features to deliver a superior playing experience.

The Ultra Modern Weight Relief body construction reduces weight without sacrificing sustain. A striking AA figured maple top adds a touch of luxury, while the bound ebony fingerboard offers a sleek and smooth playing surface. The SlimTaper neck profile and Modern Contoured Heel provide excellent upper fret access and ergonomic comfort.

At the core are a pair of vintage-voiced ’57 Classic humbuckers – a standard version at the neck and a hotter ’57 Classic Plus at the bridge. With push/pull volume and tone controls, players get access to coil tap, phase switching, and pure bypass, offering an incredibly wide tonal palette. The Studio Session is available in a range of high-gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finishes and comes with a soft shell case.
