GIBSON LES PAUL STUDIO SESSION-HONEY BURST
AA Figured Maple Top and Weight-Relieved Mahogany Body
The Ultra Modern weight-relieved mahogany body reduces overall weight while maintaining the warmth and sustain associated with traditional Les Paul construction. A carved AA figured maple cap adds articulation and brightness, balancing the mahogany’s midrange presence. This classic tonewood pairing delivers the focused response and definition players expect from a Les Paul in both studio and live environments.
A ’57 Classic pickup in the neck position and ’57 Classic+ in the bridge deliver vintage-inspired warmth, clarity and dynamic response. Independent volume controls with push/pull coil tapping expand tonal flexibility, while push/pull tone controls add phase switching and Pure Bypass functionality. This control layout allows players to move quickly between humbucker power, single-coil clarity and direct-output tones.
SlimTaper Neck and Ebony Fingerboard
A glued-in mahogany neck with a SlimTaper profile provides fast, comfortable playability across the fingerboard. The bound ebony fingerboard features acrylic trapezoid inlays, 22 medium jumbo frets and a 12" radius, supporting smooth chord transitions and expressive bends. A Modern Contoured Heel improves upper-fret access, making the guitar well suited for players who rely on extended lead work and dynamic playing styles.
