Features
The 1995 Gibson Les Paul Studio delivers the full, sustaining tone expected from a Les Paul through its mahogany body and maple top combination, producing warmth, depth, and bright articulation. The 490R and 498T humbuckers provide a versatile range of sounds, from smooth, rounded cleans to aggressive, high-output overdrive. The set-neck construction enhances sustain and resonance, while the rosewood fingerboard offers a smooth, comfortable playing experience. Simplified cosmetic appointments—such as the absence of body and neck binding—reduce weight and cost without sacrificing core Les Paul performance. With robust construction and classic Les Paul ergonomics, the 1995 Studio model remains a popular workhorse for players seeking traditional Les Paul tone in a more understated, practical design.
