The Les Paul Studio is Gibson's working-player Les Paul: a mahogany body with a carved maple cap, a glued-in mahogany neck and dual humbuckers, without the binding and fancy tops of the Standard. This left-handed version has an Ultra Modern weight-relieved body, so it is lighter than a solid Les Paul and easier on the shoulder over a long set. It suits left-handed players who want the classic Les Paul voice and feel without paying for cosmetic extras. Against the Standard it gives up some finish detail and premium hardware, but keeps the set neck, the maple cap and the humbucker recipe that define the sound.

Owners of the Les Paul Studio line generally praise the tone and playability for the money, calling it a real Les Paul without the cosmetic markup. Weight relief divides opinion: some welcome the lighter body, others say it loses some of the heft and sustain of a solid Les Paul.
The Gibson Les Paul Studio Left-handed is an electric guitar with the essential Les Paul features: humbucking pickups, a glued-in set neck, and a mahogany body with a maple cap. This version is left-handed. It has an Ultra Modern weight-relieved mahogany body, which makes it lighter to play. The carved, plain maple cap adds brightness and definition to the tone, and the mahogany body adds warmth and midrange punch.
The glued-in mahogany neck has a traditional heel and a SlimTaper profile. It is capped with a bound rosewood fretboard with acrylic trapezoid inlays and 22 medium jumbo frets. The fretboard has a 12" radius. Vintage Deluxe tuners with Keystone buttons, an aluminum Nashville Tune-O-Matic bridge, an aluminum Stop Bar tailpiece, and a Graph Tech nut help keep the tuning stable.
Two Burstbucker Pro pickups connect to a three-way selector switch, which lets you use either pickup alone or both together. Each pickup has its own volume control and its own tone control. Each volume control has a push/pull switch for coil tapping, which gives two different sounds from each pickup.
