Epiphone Les Paul Studio Electric Guitar Smokehouse Burst
The Epiphone Les Paul Studio IG proves that a lightweight electric can punch above its class. Gibson’s original model made its debut in 1983. Essentially a Les Paul with less flash, it was designed for studio musicians who were primarily concerned with sound and playability. The Studio IG, however, leaves nothing to be desired. It’s got the tones and the looks to wow in any arena.
The Slim Taper mahogany neck is designed for speed. Classic trapezoid inlays line the Indian laurel fretboard, which has a 12” radius.
The Epiphone Les Paul Studio IG is loaded with dual Alnico Classic Pro humbuckers. They deliver the traditional tonal characteristics of alnico, but with a higher, more modern output. Grover Rotomatic tuners offer rock-solid reliability for super stable tuning. A fixed bridge and stopbar tailpiece combo contribute to keep the strings in tune during the heaviest of bends.
Features

The Les Paul Studio gets Alnico Classic humbuckers
These pickups are “Classic” for a reason: they have a clarity and bite that we think you’ll find inspiring. The bridge ’bucker is a Classic Plus and is slightly overwound. -
Mahogany construction
While Gibson’s 1983 Les Paul Studio was made of alder, Epiphone goes back to basics with its Studio model. The body is mahogany, topped with a maple veneer cap. The Les Paul Studio is lighter than you’d expect and extremely comfortable for long sets. -
