Great great great sound from the 490R and 498T pickups i mean. After a while the gold on the bridge and the stopbar is going to fade away making the guitar look kinda like an old reissue guitar and to me this is definitely an advantage!Ībout the guitars advantages I really dont have much to say that aint explained in the smelly text part of this review, the neck is perfect for med its the little thicker 50s neck yet pretty slim and fast sliding to me. Next thing some may think is an advantage rather than a disadvantage and that only apply to the guitars with the goldhardware. The back of the neck gets uneven after you played it a while from dryed sweat, dirt and that makes it to me atleast a bit difficult to slide up and down the neck but, some Teakoil and a rag does the trick!Īnother thing is that sometimes when you play chords with distortion it sound muddy and its hard for the ear to hear all the tones, this ofcourse is due to the 490R and 498T humbucker pickups and I know that humbuckers aint the n1 choise for those who want that clean tone. It has it's bad sides to as everything else has. And that's a view at least my eyes never gets tired of.ĭon't get me wrong this aint the most perfect guitar in the world no no. but stillĪnd I think that's some of the beauty with this guitar to me, everyday you look at it standig in its rack just begging to be played on. And I think that was the problem with me in the beginning though im not even a beginner guitarplayer. They just dont have the experience to understand what kind of holy piece of craftmanship they are dealing with. I totally underestimated the guitar and I think I still doįor a beginner guitarplayer this guitar might seem just like an ordinary guitar from an ordinary manufacture. The thing is im 18 years old and I probably didnt understand what I was buying. I knew what I was buying and I their by I knew that I would be pleased with the sound.īought the guitar, drove home, pluged it in and.wow. But i didnt bother to plug it in in the store.
#LES PAUL STUDIO SPECS TV#
I had never heard how the les paul studio would sound like in real life, I had only heard it on the internet or on the TV but never in real time life. Sometimes I get serious flashbacks from the woodshop in school when i play it its really cool. Yeah and it smells really strong alright, you can barely pick it up before you can smell the strong yet soft and worm smell of mahogany. 2 volume and 2 tone knobs, 3-way switch.490R and 498T Alnico 2 magnet humbucker pickups.Some interesting facts about the LP studio: With the guitar I also got a Canadian manufactured Gibson hard case worth about 600 $ or 380 Euro. Now, A few weeks ago I bought a Gibson Les Paul Studio in wine red with gold hardware for 1,670 $ or 1,050 Euro.
