lefthanded electric guitar with maple top and Gibson 490R and 498T humbuckers, case included
The Studio 2017 Gibson Les Paul T convinces as a straightforward workhorse for recording and stage, which only places the sound in the foreground by dispensing with optical ornamentation. Based on the traditional mahogany construction with a maple top, the electric guitar has the perfect foundation for the classic Les Paul sound, while the Gibson 490R and 498T Humbucker the Coilsplit option deliver variable timbres to the amplifier.
Gibsons Les Paul Studio 2017 T combines simple design with powerful features.
Classically built Les Paul with Fokus on the sound
In the construction of the Gibson Les Paul Studio 2017 T, the Nashville native Gibson USA Factory follows the classic guidelines of 1952 and manufactures the body from mahogany with a solid maple top, while the glued mahogany neck carries a Palisander fingerboard. So that long gigs and studio sessions can also be played without problems, the body has the Ultra - Modern Weight Relief for weight reduction, while the " Slim Taper " profile lies comfortably in the hand and offers the perfect basis for classical and modern playing techniques.
Versatile Humbucker sound
The Gibson Les Paul Studio 2017 T uses a pickup at Gibson 490R Humbucker the neck and a pickup at 498T Humbucker the bridge. With hot wound coils and powerful Alnico blends, they deliver a modern, well-defined Humbucker sound that never denies its kinship to the legendary PAFs. Accordingly, the electric guitar provides the appropriate timbres for classical and modern interpretations of blues and Pop . Another special feature is the Coil Tap mode, which can be called up via push/pull potentiometers, for anyone Humbucker who provides authentic Single Coil sounds.
Gibsons Les Paul Studio 2017 T comes with Gibson USA Hardshell Case included.
Hardware -equipment
The Focus Gibson Les Paul Studio 2017 T is Hardware equipped with unrestricted functionality. The strings are held on the body by the proven combination of Tune -O-Matic bridge Aluminium Stopbar and -O-Matic bridge, which ensures perfect adjustment of intonation and string position. From there the strings run with 24.75" scale length (628 mm) over the neck, where they first meet the Tektoid saddle and then are led to the indestructible Grover Rotomatic tuners, which convince with high precision and tuning stability.

Had a bad experience recently with an order for new guitar - so was reluctant to do mail order again without trying the guitar first, however the price was so competitive it was well worth the risk. There were no issues here. Packing and shipping were top notch, all arrived in good shape and on time from Germany with informative daily communications. More importantly, the Gibson guitar I ordered is just fantastic! Thanks guys.

After three days of the order the properly packed guitar has arrived. Beautiful workmanship, great feel and great sound as it’s expected from a Gibson. The neck is very comfortable and fast. Unbelievable sustain. The strings have to change to 0.10. Excellent value for this price.

At the price its a very fine example of lower end gibsons
The product surprised me in that the price inc a hardcase and was delighted with the sweet aroma of the case and guitar ... vanilla I think. playability was clearly set up ready nice action and buzz limited to bottom e at 3rd fret ! not bad at all. its not to heavy . pickups are good they seem bright but after adjusting height on bridge pick up seems less bright. so over all glad to have met Gibson equipment ! yes they are the real guitar makers the real thing , compared to other imitators out there. I will buy another one for sure !! just don't tell the good lady .

Great service by Musicstore! That was my first order here and for sure won't be the last! Delivery was fast enough - less than a week. Product came safe at my home. As for the guitar....don' t get fooled by the mega sale price people...that is a real Gibson guitar! It came brand new, with an excellent brown case and a few goodies as subscribed by musicstore. As far as the optics of the guitar great, except a tiny, very small and thin area in the body under the 20 fret like a dent (maybe the lacquer wasn't sprayed good enough), but it was no big deal. Needed only a few minutes to set it up right, as the tailpiece was way too high on the low E side without any particular reason, and as mentioned by others the fretboard was little dry, so it needed a small amount of lemon oil to get alive and shiny.. As for the UM Weght refief it sure does makes a lot of difference in a band situation to play standing for 2-3 hours. As for the sound i have no words...I have a more expensive Gibson LP and I was amazed how the new baby sings...!!! Warm, melodic, organic tunes is what you expect from a Gibson guitar, and this one does it all!!!! Split coils are a nice feature, also, for those who like more versatility. Again I m very pleased with the guitar which is highly recommended !!!!
