Gibson Exclusive Les Paul Studio Session Guitar with Soft Case - Smokehouse Burst
The Gibson Exclusive Les Paul Studio Session in Smokehouse Burst is the refined take on the classic Les Paul Studio combines the timeless appeal of Gibson's most iconic design with modern upgrades that address real-world playing needs, all wrapped in a stunning smokehouse burst finish that catches light like aged bourbon.
Tonal Versatility That Goes the Distance
Whether you’re crafting fiery solos or smooth, mellow tones, this guitar delivers versatility and performance with effortless style.
'57 Classic and '57 Classic+ Pickups: These aren't your average humbuckers. With individual push/pull volume and tone controls offering coil tapping, phase switching, and pure bypass options, you'll unlock everything from crystalline single-coil chime to thunderous humbucker growl — and every shade of tone in between.
AA Figured Maple Cap Over Mahogany: The marriage of bright maple's snap with mahogany's warm foundation creates a balanced tonal palette that cuts through dense mixes while retaining the rich midrange Les Pauls are famous for.
Graph Tech Tusq Nut: This isn't just about sustain (though you'll get plenty) — the enhanced harmonics and clarity make every note ring with purpose, whether you're playing delicate fingerpicked passages or driving power chords.
Playability That Feels Like Home
The Studio Session addresses the elephant in the room: accessibility. The Modern Contoured Heel gives you uncompromised access to those high frets that used to require contortionist skills to reach comfortably.
SlimTaper Neck Profile: Fast enough for lead work, substantial enough for rhythm playing.
Ultra-Modern Weight Relief: All the sustain and resonance of a solid mahogany body, but without the chiropractor bills. Your back will thank you during those marathon practice sessions.
Bound Ebony Fretboard: Smooth as silk under your fingers with the visual elegance.
Built to Impress and Built to Last
Sometimes it's the details that make the difference between a good guitar and one that becomes part of your musical identity. The Gibson Les Paul Studio Session is definitely a part of the latter camp with premium appointments that would win over even the harshest critic.
Grover Rotomatic Tuners with Keystone Buttons: Rock-solid tuning stability meets classic Gibson aesthetics — because nothing kills a great performance like a guitar that won't stay in tune.
Gloss Nitrocellulose Lacquer Finish: The smokehouse burst finish isn't just eye candy — nitro lacquer lets the wood breathe and ages gracefully, developing character with every year of playing.
Included Softshell Case: Protection for your investment that won't break your budget or your back when you're hauling gear to the gig.
The Gibson Exclusive Les Paul Studio Session represents the evolution of an icon — honoring the legacy while embracing the future. This guitar delivers the goods with a level of refinement that only comes from decades of building the instruments that shaped popular music.

New Gibson Les Paul Studio
New Gibson Les Paul Studio Session. Had to take it to a luthier to have it intonated and the pickups height-adjusted. String action also need to be adjusted. It would be nice if AMS would offer setup services for their new guitars.
