I've been playing for ten years now, and have gone through my share of guitars. I play rock, blues, country...you name it, this guitar covers it. With the mahogany body and the humbuckers in this thing, you can cover anything from playing the warmest rhythm, and with a little distortion, bone jarring rock, to soaring highs on lead solos. If you're a blues player, this thing will moan all night. What you're basically looking at is a cosmetically stripped down LP Standard. While retaining all the LP essentials, the Studio is nonetheless a beautiful guitar.

The Les Paul Studio is an excellent all around guitar for all kinds of music. The Studio can play blues to metal, rhythm to solo, quiet to load & never skip a beat. You won't be disappointed with this one, it will cover all the bases for any occasion.

I play blues, so the mahogany of this plank, king of tone, is much appreciated. I have a Les Paul Classic, a Custom and a Studio. I tune them all differently, but they all have the same killer tone of a Les Paul, and that is GOOD. The sustain that these beasts have is without rival! If you are in need of a rig that can get everything from warm fuzz to full blown "far beyond driven" distortion, get a Les Paul. If you don't have two grand or more, get a Studio model. Same guitar, same wood, same factory. In fact, the top on my Studio is a better looking piece of wood than the top of the Classic. These are some beautiful guitars. If GOD played a guitar, it would be a Les Paul loaded with Duncan Pearly Gates pickups. Trust me, I know.
So, buy 2, Sleep with one and play the other. Would give it 6 stars, but it won't let me.
