A Les Paul guitar with modern tone and sleek metallic style only available here.
The Gibson Les Paul Studio Metallic Guitar Center-exclusive electric guitar combines iconic design with modern refinements, delivering the essential Les Paul experience in a sleek metallic black gloss finish. Featuring an Ultra-Modern weight-relieved mahogany body topped with maple, this guitar offers legendary resonance and sustain with reduced weight for extended comfort. The SlimTaper mahogany neck enhances playability, while the bound Indian rosewood fingerboard with acrylic trapezoid inlays adds a touch of elegance. Equipped with Burstbucker Pro pickups, this model delivers a versatile tonal range from warm cleans to aggressive overdrive. Built with precision and featuring premium hardware, the Les Paul Studio Metallic is tailored for players who demand style, substance and performance.
Gibson Burstbucker Pro Pickups Deliver Dynamic Tonal Range
The Burstbucker Pro pickups featured in this guitar are engineered for precision and power. The neck pickup produces smooth, warm tones ideal for rhythm work, while the bridge pickup delivers biting clarity and high output for lead lines. Both pickups maintain exceptional articulation even under high gain, ensuring every note cuts through the mix. With individual tone and push/pull volume controls, players can experiment with coil-tapping to access single-coil brightness or blend settings for expanded tonal possibilities. The three-way toggle switch further enhances versatility, making this guitar a powerful tool for shaping your sound with accuracy and depth.
Ultra-Modern Weight-Relieved Body for Comfort and Resonance
This model's weight-relieved mahogany body offers enhanced comfort during extended performances without sacrificing tonal integrity. The strategically designed chambering reduces overall weight while amplifying resonance, creating a rich, harmonically balanced sound. Topped with a plain maple cap, the body adds brightness and definition to the warmth of mahogany, ensuring every note is articulate and full-bodied. The gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish not only protects the instrument but also accentuates its metallic black aesthetic. Paired with premium binding, this construction delivers outstanding tonal response and a sleek, stage-ready appearance.
SlimTaper Neck Profile for Fluid Playability
Designed for speed and comfort, this guitar's SlimTaper neck profile allows effortless movement across the fretboard. Made from mahogany and capped with an Indian rosewood fingerboard, the neck provides a smooth playing surface for intricate solos and precise chord transitions. The acrylic trapezoid inlays enhance visibility while adding a classic design element. With a traditional set-neck construction, this design offers superior sustain and stability. Finished with a Graph Tech nut and 22 frets, the neck ensures consistent intonation and reliable performance during demanding sessions.
Premium Hardware Built for Long-Term Reliability
The Guitar Center-exclusive Les Paul Studio Metallic is equipped with high-quality hardware designed for durability and consistent performance. Vintage Deluxe tuners with Keystone buttons provide precise tuning adjustments, while the aluminum Nashville Tune-O-Matic bridge and Stop Bar tailpiece optimize string vibration for maximum sustain. Chrome-plated components resist wear over time, maintaining both functionality and aesthetic appeal. These thoughtful additions ensure the guitar remains reliable through rigorous use, whether in the studio or on stage. Combined with its robust construction, this hardware package supports players who need dependable performance every time they play.
