The Les Paul Studio Session is a Studio with upgrades: an AA figured maple top, an ebony fingerboard, and a pair of 57 Classic humbuckers, the Plus wound a bit hotter for the bridge. Push/pull controls tap the coils, flip the phase and switch to pure bypass, so one guitar covers a lot of ground.
Ultra-Modern weight relief keeps the mahogany body light, and the SlimTaper neck is quick. Nashville Tune-O-Matic, Grover Rotomatic tuners and a soft shell case.
Six finishes. Bourbon Burst, Cherry, Cobalt Burst and Honey Burst have chrome hardware. Translucent Ebony Burst and Iguana Burst have black nickel.
