Gibson Les Paul Studio Electric Guitar – User Reviews and Complaints

"I can notice some small blade marks (from saws I assume) and some minor imperfections in the finish but nothing that stands right out...unlike some of the models that I tried with bound fingerboards where I could see the sloppy filing marks everywhere. As far as I am concerned this guitar is worth its price. I have 3 guitars which were all over $1300.00 including this one and it is worth the money. I tried a few other guitars that were much more expensive and some that were not as expensive and this guitar won out over the rest."

"The set-up wasn't perfect, the action on the lower strings was higher than on the higher strings, but that was a quick fix thanks to the Tune-O-Matic bridge. All I had to do was loosen the strings and turn the thumb wheele. The finish looks amazing, I got mine in wine red and I suggest the same for you. The fret board was nice pretty fast but again, the thing has a fat neck, which isn't a big deal it's just something that you have to get use to."

"If you really love electric guitar you really only need two models to get all the different tonal flavors for different songs. One is the Gibson LP and the other is the Fender Strat. I love my Studio LP but I also have to have the Strat for that single coil sound. With these two guitars there is nothing you can't do. Nothing else sounds or plays like a Gibson LP. It's been around for so many years with virtually no changes for a good reason."

"It doesn't look as nice as a Les Paul Standard or classic, but it sounds just as good, if not better. Other than that, this guitar's got everything you'd expect in a Gibson."

"The 498T Alnico V and 490R Alnico II pairing is arguably the best pickup set that Gibson has ever put together. The tonal range and overall capability of this combination is incredible (no doubt the reason Gibson puts them on the Custom and Supreme). The only thing this guitar doesn't have is binding, and considering the quality of the finish, it doesn't need it. This is a fantastic guitar and an clear example of why the Gibson Les Paul is the standard for everything from Jazz to Metal."
