Overview

Street rod looks and scorching tone.

Since 1983 the Les Paul Studio has won countless fans for its made-in-America quality, its full-bore tone, and its no-nonsense looks and pricing. The Les Paul Studio Hot Rod takes all of what' best about the Studio and adds more: extra thick body, scorchingly powerful humbucking pickups with Fat Tap switching, and customized street rod looks on a sleek ebony finish with blue and white pinstriping.

A black markerless fingerboard (side dots only) and double-white pickup coils complement the look, and it' all nailed down for optimum resonance and sustain with time-tested tune-o-matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece, plus locking Grover tuners. Pack it all in a Vintage Brown Gibson hardshell case”at an unbelievable price”and you'e ready for the gig.
