Epiphone Les Paul Studio Smokehouse Burst

The Epiphone Les Paul Studio is the epitome of simplicity and excellence. Don't underestimate its incredible performance compared to the Standard model. The Studio captures the classic Epiphone tone, offering accessibility to entry-level players.

With a perfect blend of 80s character and modern playability, the Les Paul Studio exudes charm and charisma through its two signature humbucker pickups. These alnico double coils deliver a rich and robust sound, whether you desire warm and punchy mids or responsive lows. From punk to blues, this flagship model can handle any genre with ease.

Epiphone guitars are renowned for their deep, resonant tones, and the Studio is no exception. It has earned the trust of the world's biggest recording artists, who have showcased the iconic Les Paul sound across multiple genres. This instrument truly surpasses expectations, proving that simplicity doesn't mean boring.

Few guitars are as iconic as the Les Paul. With its single cutaway design and perfectly sculpted curves, it's easy to see why it took the 80s by storm. Now, it's been reinvented to usher in a new music revolution.

Crafted from solid mahogany, this is a body that sings with sweet sustain. Both pickups are mounted directly onto the maple top, resonating with the natural qualities of the wood. The results are obvious. Warm, textured tone that's as recognisable as it is unique. A huge feat that's made to look easy.

If there's one thing the Studio is known for, it’s its effortless playability. Whether you're a seasoned shredder or a laid back rhythm player, finger positioning is easy on a Pau Ferro fretboard that's been given the slim taper treatment. Up high, you have unlimited access to reach stratospheric lead lines, and down low, you can play chords in comfort for hours on end. This is about to change what you thought about playing the guitar.

Sure. The Studio looks modest, but it can go toe to toe with any big contender. Epiphone have worked tirelessly not only to bring you enhanced playability, but to deliver tuning stability that far surpasses the industry standard.

Discover pitch perfect playing with the LockTone ABR Tune-o-matic bridge. With the ability to adjust each string length using the corresponding screws, you can achieve impeccable intonation. There's a reason why Epiphone have kept this innovative design for over 60 years.

But the bridge can't take all the glory. Your strings will be singing in key thanks to Grover's signature machine heads. Admired worldwide, these tuning machines mean business. Rest assured that your tuning will stay rock solid, no matter what environment you find yourself playing in.

You're not a one trick pony. So you need a guitar that can do it all. The Epiphone Les Paul Studio has been tried and tested across a myriad of genres, bringing its bespoke flair to each party.

Go from bright high end to rounded lows with the 3-way pickup toggle. This sensitive selector is everything you need to take your tone on a journey it won't forget.

Just like Bonnie and Clyde, two Tone pots work in harmony to bring depth and texture to your guitar sound. Dial your high frequencies with precision with full tonal control of each pickup. This is timbre that is sure to turn heads, no matter where you are.
