Gibson Les Paul Studio Session Cobalt Burst

Why the Gibson Les Paul Studio Session Cobalt Burst combines classic heritage with modern versatility

Some guitars uphold a tradition, while others intentionally open it up to a new generation. The Gibson Les Paul Studio Session Cobalt Burst belongs to the latter group. Beneath the deep Cobalt Burst finish on an AA figured maple top lies a Les Paul with Ultra Modern weight relief, making this classic foundation remarkably lightweight and easy to play. For the guitarist who wants the legendary Les Paul sound without sacrificing comfort.

Tonally, the foundation lies in the wood and the '57 Classic and '57 Classic+ humbuckers. That combination delivers the rich, dynamic Les Paul tone with a warm low end and a transparent top. With the push/pull volume controls, you can tap the humbuckers for bright single-coil sounds, while the push/pull tone controls add phase switching and pure bypass. This allows you to build your signal from vintage character to direct, unfiltered output, without any intermediate steps.

The construction fully supports that tone. The mahogany body with a maple top balances warmth and attack, while the mahogany neck with its slender SlimTaper profile and 12-inch radius ebony fretboard with classic trapezoid inlays plays effortlessly. You play on 22 medium jumbo frets and the Grover Rotomatic tuners with Keystone buttons keep the tuning tight. The aluminum Nashville Tune-O-Matic bridge and the 24.75-inch scale length ensure maximum sustain and stable intonation. The Les Paul Studio Session comes in a gig bag and weighs approximately 3.76 kg.

Anyone seeking the classic soul of the Les Paul, enriched with the flexibility of today, will find it in the Gibson Les Paul Studio Session Cobalt Burst. Come and discover it.
