A Gently Aged Look for a Traditional Les Paul Studio
Hugely popular since it first hit the scene in 1983, the Les Paul Studio has won over thousands of players by nailing genuine Les Paul features, feel and tone at an unbeatable price. The Les Paul Studio Faded 2011 T brings back the same stripped-down ethos in Traditional form, with the gently aged look of a faded satin nitrocellulose finish and the Studio’s lack of body and fingerboard binding for a no-nonsense package, all at a superb value for a genuine American-made Gibson electric guitar. The body of the 2011 Les Paul Studio Faded T is crafted with a carved Maple top and Mahogany back, with modern weight relief to improve comfort and enhance resonance, with a satin nitro finish for a gently aged look and feel. The glued-in set neck uses the classic neck heel shape and has a 1 and 11/16 inch width at the nut. Traditional trapezoid inlays round out the look.
Burst Bucker Pro pickups are made in the image of the hallowed PAF humbucker with Alnico magnets and mismatched coils for added bite and clarity, but the coils are wax potted to combat squeal in high-gain playing situations. They are routed through independent volume and tone controls and a three-way toggle switch. The nickel / chrome hardware follows Gibson’s classic Les Paul complement of a Tune-o-matic bridge, stopbar tailpiece, and high-quality traditional tuners. Together, they provide smooth and easy tune-ups, solid tone, and precise intonation.
Like all our used / vintage gear this has been tested for functionality and priced to move. Sold as-is. What you see is what you get. Comes with original Gibson gig bag case. Excellent shape without any serious issues, damage or repairs. Maybe some superficial cosmetic marks here and there, but nothing significant. Obviously it has been autographed. The signatures are from Peter Gabriel, Graham Nash, David Crosby and Rodrigo e Gabriella from the 2011 Witness Benefit in New York. The signatures can be easily removed with some Naphtha if they are not your thing. But I figured we’d leave it up to the owner to decide.
Light, loud, resonant and lively! Fun to play and great sounding. Only 7.2 lbs
