Gibson Les Paul Studio Wine Red 2005

The Gibson Les Paul Studio embodies the essential Les Paul features with enhancements for playability and tonal versatility. The rosewood fingerboard and slim taper mahogany neck provide effortless playability and comfort. The 490R and 498T pickups provide tight, high-output humbucking performance.

This one features a flame top and gold hardware which you don't normally get on Studios. I suspect it might have been a bit of a limited run for the Japanese market but not 100% sure.

Key Features:

• A stage and studio workhorse
• Modern weight-relieved body allows for more comfort, longer sessions
• Chunkier neck, closer to a 50s spec
• Rosewood fingerboard delivers classic Les Paul sustain
• 490R/498T humbucking pickups provide classic cleans and modern crunch to quacky single-coil cluck
• Gibson Deluxe Vintage Style Tuners
• Nashville Tune-o-matic bridge is lightweight and tonally matched to the guitar

Condition: Some very minor dings and finish swirling (see pictures), nothing structural / major that is visible from afar. Ding on fretboard (2nd Fret, see pictures) does not impact playability.

Playability: Straight neck, minor fret wear, action is comfortable, no issues with electronics.
