Got one of the new Gibson Les Paul Studios!

Came in today and got a demo. Binding on the fretboard looks cool and thr Burstbuckers sound great! Of course I added a Frankenstein decal already and goes great with Wayne's "Boris" Boost he made for me ???

Like the binding on neck.

I've been eye-balling these as well. Seems the nut width is a little wider and the slim taper neck will feel like home with my '61 SG. I just can't understand how they're $200 less than an SG Standard?

Yeah that is crazy, with the price. It is less wood, lol.

After playing for a bit, I'm going to have to upgrade the bridge pickup. The pickups sound great but for the hard rock stuff I play, going to need to upgrade.

The neck is definitely slimmer than my 2019 tandard 60s neck and 2013 Classic neck. At 8 pounds, feels perfect for me to use at gigs.

It definitely feels comfortable and what I'm used to with Les Pauls but feels more solid to me than some Studios I've had in the past.
