Gibson Les Paul Studio Exclusive
(Gold Top)
Featuring Gibson Burstbucker Pro HumbuckersThe Gibson Les Paul Studio is everything us guitarists love about a classic Les Paul—massive tone, sleek looks, and smooth playability. This guitar is built for musicians who want to get stuck straight into playing, whether you’re laying down tracks in the studio or tearing it up live on stage.
With a chambered mahogany body topped with maple, it’s lighter than you might expect but still retains that signature Les Paul sustain. The SlimTaper neck profile feels fast and familiar in the hand, while the bound Indian rosewood fingerboard adds both comfort and style.
Loaded with Burstbucker Pro humbuckers, you’ll get everything from smooth bluesy cleans to growling high-gain tones, and thanks to the coil-splitting push-pull pots, there’s heaps of versatility under the hood. Fancy a single-coil sparkle? No problem.
Finished with acrylic trapezoid inlays, a “Les Paul Model” headstock, and the iconic Gibson logo, this Studio looks every bit the part too. It’s a no-nonsense tone machine with pro-level specs and vintage soul, all at a price that makes it all too tempting!

Expertly Crafted For Peak Performance
Gibson Burstbucker Pro Humbuckers
Burstbucker Pro pickups take that classic PAF mojo and crank it up a notch. They deliver all the vintage goodness you’d expect—exceptional clarity, dynamic response, and that warm, rich tone that makes a Les Paul sing—but with a modern twist. Thanks to Alnico V magnets (swapped in for the lower-output Alnico IIs of yesteryear), you get a bit more bite, punch, and low-end growl, making them perfect for players who like to push things into higher-gain territory.
Plus, they’re wax-potted, keeping unwanted hum and squeal well in check. Whether you’re chasing vintage-style leads or dialling in heavier riffs, Burstbucker Pros strike a killer balance between authentic PAF feel and modern muscle.
