In pairing a lightweight mahogany body with a spanky maple top, the Epiphone Les Paul Studio builds on the same DNA as its more-expensive cousins. This no-frills musician's tool is equipped for great performance and all the right visual beats. Its '60s-profile SlimTaper "D" mahogany neck and trapezoid-inlaid pau ferro fingerboard afford great playability and price-defying luxury. The Les Paul Studio features Alnico Classic and Classic Plus humbucking pickups — enhanced by push-pull volume pots for coil splitting — to yield rich, no-compromise tone. High-quality tuners and a LockTone Tune-o-matic bridge pour rock-solid intonation into every soulful strum and sultry melody you unearth in this all-occasions axe. Black Speed Knobs give you quick access to those coveted Les Paul tones.
The Epiphone Les Paul Studio's classic tonewoods present a combination of clarity, definition, and fullness. You get a trebly bite from the maple veneer top and excellent depth from the lightweight mahogany body. The set-in mahogany neck and pau ferro fretboard further enhance this guitar's tone. Whether you're after bell-like cleans or fire-breathing gains, you'll love the full-range sound, tonality, and playability you get in the Epiphone Les Paul Studio.
Les Pauls have always been flexible guitars. The Alnico Classic humbuckers in the Epiphone Les Paul Studio give you everything from snarling rock aggression to velvety jazz smoothness.

No matter what style of music you play, the Epiphone Les Paul Studio comes correct.
For generations, guitar players have gravitated toward the Les Paul. Rock icons such as Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Slash, and many others heavily utilized the Les Paul.
