  • its a beauty but the golden hardware not my kind off thing.

  • I HAVE ETHE SAME GUITAR MAN!

    But i dont knew HE has gold hardware!

    Are you saying it abouth the color or about the material?... I mean REALLY GOLD??'

  • i am so happy cause i ll buy it in 2 days ! it's my dream guitar

  • Eh, studios kinda suck, but thus ones cool

  • does it come w/ the case?

  • I just got this same guitar. IMHO the gold hardware, knobs and creme accents really make this model pop.

  • If that guitar doesn`t scream rock`n roll, nothing does ;O

  • got mine ordered but im lefty so i wont get it until they get enough orders to make them :(

  • Just got me one of these off ebay What gauge strings do you recomend ?

  • @mealsgateboys That's personal preference. I used to like a very heavy string, but I'm moving towards lighter strings. Try a few guitars with different strings and see which ones you like.

  • get mine next month!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • i'm sooo jealous!!! :)))

  • lol he looks so excited

  • @reviewsnake can u really blame him??

  • dnmkjiuytreswqac\cvbjhg,klohgd­x nfnm,.lgfd sorry just wiping the jizz off my keyboard

  • I just ordered the same LP! No binding is fine with me! This guitar is a Beauty!

  • @Sportsterfan68 Your going to love it :P

  • niceniceniceniceniceniceNICE!!­

  • @blackoath Thanks :P

  • wtf it comes with a pickguard

  • DAMN. I want one now.

  • if this guitar had atleast body binding nd a headstock inlay i would pay money for this

  • @stephen0093 you pick on the only problem......

  • @surferstapleton it's not a problem. that's the point of the Studio model. if you want all that stuff, go for the Standard

  • @surferstapleton dude im just messin around, fuck binding ur axe is badass.

  • @stephen0093 Thanks ;P

  • @stephen0093 dude if the guitar had bindig , they call it a standard,,,and you pay 1500 bucks more for it...

    know what your talking about before you post,,,,,

    nice guitar bro!!

  • Does it have a clear tone with a lot of gain? Is the neck thin ir fat?

  • @eadgbeskate Em, from what I remember, its the 50's neck, and I love it, can't stand my strat anymore, its like playing on a ruler or something. As for clear tome with a lot of gain, just look around on youtube. There's a dude who plays Purple Haze with it somewhere.

  • how much was this guitar and where from?

  • @goldenguy12345 950euro from GAK.co.uk (<- if that website is blocked by Youtube, just check the credits)

  • @surferstapleton okay thankyou :) and what is the full name of the guitar?

  • @surferstapleton can you send me a link please?

  • Fekin ferce user.

  • Cuando te la comprastes te vino con el bolso o la comprastes aparte

  • what is the best amp you could use with this guitar with a Very small budget lol

  • @SH4RK136 Google is you're friend, also a budget would help =P I'm using a 50watt Stinger (Made by Proel) STP50GOR.

  • Naaah not loaded... just paid monthly :p

    I had been playing a terrible little Encore thing for about 5 years and never really put much practice in, like 3 hours a week at the very most, but I love playing, and recently started getting a lot better a lot faster, so to get more enjoyment out of it I thought I should be playing a guitar I love... So I just went to look at Strats, not intending to buy one, then made a noise on this one and suddenly I just bought it out of nowhere!! Extreme...

  • You got a bargain btw if that price is true!! (I just spent £700 on USA Strat from a shop, think they are about 600 on the internet... was an impulse buy :/)

  • @liof16 Impulse buy lol =P You must be loaded haha!

  • That is a beaut... I'm sure you'll enjoy that for years and year sand years and years etc

  • does the gold hardware cost more than silver?

  • Comment removed

  • i just got this guitar 2 days ago and its amazing! =D

  • Nice. I'm kind of wishing I had spent the extra 200 or so dollars and got this instead of my Studio Faded

  • i bought a gibson sg special heritage cherry and i only got a gigbag

  • It came from Gibson USA ??? For €95O ! Amazing !!

  • @xXmarlowXwwfcXx Of course I'd recommend this guitar, I love it to bits =D

  • Extra for gold hardware?

  • I love how you get a manual with a Gibson :')

    what fool would but one and not know how to use it?

  • you think this guitar would look good with silver hardware and a cream pickguard? i got the same one

  • thats the one i plan on getting. 490r and 498t right?

  • @therealchich2 Yes, be sure that it's 498T for the bridge... generally these days it will be, but the older Studios has a 490 in the bride aswell and they sounded terrible. If you can, make sure it has gold hardware just to be sure, gold hardware will always have the 498T bridge pickup.

  • i want to upgrade from my noob "squier by fender" does this sound significantly better ..i know i looks way better :P... i just dont want to spend a ton of money on an unecessary gibson standard

  • @DoMinC246 I have that guitar, its sounds significantly better as its a different style of guitar, and also a much higher standard of guitar. If you have a squire, I'm assuming you don't have the best Amp, you might want to get a new one to get more out of the Gibson. This is a guitar I will have forever and never sell =D

  • @surferstapleton lol yea my amp is lame....thanks for the info dude!

  • @DoMinC246 I think the sounds I make while taking a shit sounds better than a Squier, buddy.

  • @DoMinC246 Fender suck eggs, gibson rule the way

  • do you get a pickguard with it

  • God finally a person that doesn't have the faded model. Everyone is to poor to afford a glossed guitar like you do. Cheers. I have a gibson sg standard. 5 stars

  • @bbshooter1221 Ye, it really is worth it for the properly painted one =P

  • @bbshooter1221 i actually like tha faded cherry i can aford the fireburst but i just like tha color just my opinion : )

  • @bbshooter1221 did u get a hard case nwith that cos i got an sg special heritage cherry and only got a gigbag

  • @mastercross1 all the gibson models that are 1,000 and less get a gig bag. if you buy the standard (1,200 at samash) it comes with a hard case. :-)

  • Gets more beatiful by the minute. I'm sold.

  • be better if the guitar had binding if im honest

  • @Hebamundo Yea, but thats where you're saving money on a standard.

  • @surferstapleton

    the binding?i think it's more to do with the quality of the wood,the pickups and other hardware and electronics and of course, the people who work on the guitar. the more inexperienced work on the studios,melody makers etc,intermediate work on the standards in the 'usa' shop, and the most experienced craftsmen who have been working for the company for the minimum of 20 years work in the custom shop. you have to remember,when buying agibson,most of your money goesto western work

  • @Hebamundo i think that anybody working for gibson got there thru connections, have a luthier diploma,they know what gibson is, and they wanna keep their job. you dont need 20 years experience to do whatever the machine doesnt do. the differences between studio and standard are minimal. pickups cost the same if bought separately. the main differences are the gibson logo silkscreened vs inlayed, binding all around , tuners turn ratios (continued...

  • @Hebamundo (imo dont make a difference ) then theres the wood, grade A vs "normal wood?" (who said the tree at the top of the mountain sounds better its a question of taste), and the electronics? comon theyre the same..in other words, is it really worth 2000$ more? comon.........just like is the jimmy page custom signed really worth 25 000?

  • @PiercingTruth

    trust me, the wood makes a HUGE differences, especially due to variations of density and the grain of the wood.

    The craftsmen workers they have working on the standards are more experienced.

    The electronics are actually better in the standard, they use cheaper grades on the studio.

    The finish quality and the laquer is better on the standards.

    Pickups are down to personal taste.

    Other than that, they are very similar. The Standard is better though, still, I wouldn't buy one.

  • @Hebamundo well it sucks that they use cheaper grade electronics on the studio since we all know electronics cost nothing to make..and i dont know how wood density makes such a huge difference when gibson are actually making holes in the new gibsons to "remove weight and add tone" and i dont understand either howcome the epiphone lp custom (with all the bells and whistles and binding) is more expensive than the lp studio.. anyways so howcome you wouldnt even buy a standard?

  • @PiercingTruth

    Um,the epi LP custom costs half the price of a gibson lp studio, u must be mistaken :P

    Umm, several reasons why I wudnt buy a LP standardL firstly, i HATE the chambered bodies (which is something different to weight relieving), i dont like burstbucker pros, i don't like the metal tuners they use on the headstock...

    those are just my personal opinions, id much rather go with a traditional: they cost less, aren't weight relieved/chambered, better pickups.

    Oh, and I have a slash AFD

  • Man i wan one soo bad they are so nice haha

  • Crazy Train is from Ozzy Osbourne Blizzard of Ozz Guitarist is Randy Rhoads not Black Sabbath and Tony Iommi.

    You have a very nice guitar man! Simply Beautiful!!

  • Ah im debating between this and the gary moore les paul ? which one

  • dude where are your covers at? anyways i plan on getting this guitar or a 55 inch samsung. Also i believe this is the best finish of the studios. and i need this finsih so i can show it off at my gigs then just a plain one color studio. although i heard the burstbuckers on the faded studios sound better not sure.

  • @therealchich Haven't had a chance to play it in a while, and its kind of intimidating putting a cover up on youtube now that I think about it, you're putting yourself up to be analyzed and there's bound to be a few cunts who will act up and say its shit. I like to play by myself or perform with a band, don't like to perform by myself =P

  • @surferstapleton Hey, i'm sure you're good. Everyone has haters. Look up KOBIBA, tkmafkng, and gewerh44. They are all amazing, and even they have a few people who say that they aren't good, when they really are. You just have to ignore them and realize that you can't please everyone. Good luck.

  • I Think I'm going to buy this one.. I have now a Bc Rich KKV so, I can play metal XD, and this is for the other work :P. And I need a marshall XD.

  • whats better a les paul studio with chrome hardware or a les paul supreme with gold hardware i cant decide

  • @yusufkhan128496 Usually whatever is more expensive. I'd say get the supreme if you can afford it.

  • fail... the more expensive one is only the designe the expensive factor...

  • TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH THE GUITAR WAS NOT THAT GOOD

  • Porn! Filth! :) Well, I nearly came in my pants waiting for you to open the case! LOL.

    I get mine next month, can't wait! Looks awesome.

    Nice vid!

  • In my opinion, fireburst with gold hardware is the best finish

  • What is the difference beetween fireburst gold hardware, and just fireburst

  • @xxCFPFxx the other has chrome hardware.

  • can you plat that thing?

  • I love this guitar!! im getting one this summer

  • That's a really nice guitar. I have a 2009 Gibson Les Paul Studio Faded Cherry. I'm wondering what that price might be, my list price was $1200 got it on sale $800 at Guitar Center. So was that in the $2,000+ zone or what?

  • the sexiest studio finish!!!!!

  • its not so big diffrent it is the same pickups

  • is it easy to put a pickguard on it? cause im thinking about buying one and i think it would look better with a pickguard, just my personal preference. how do you like the guitar? its really nice btw

  • @Nh1959rr5150 dude are u serious putting a pickguard on a gibson is a cardinal sin. not only will it look shitty if u decide to one day take it off b/c of the screw holes, but it will also lower the value b/c many people hate pickguards on guitars. just sayin u can do whatever but damn...

  • I like Studio Les Pauls when the're glossy like that, and mate!! u got ur self a sexi guitar

  • Hey guys. Whats better for metal and hard rock? This gibson or a gibson les paul standard desertburst? Thx

  • @Morblind Standards are better guitars, so if you have the spare cash, go for a standard =P

  • @Morblind metal go with an esp....just saying they are amazing.....but otherwise if your one of those i love the brand kinda guy then go with the standard

  • @Morblind Dont get a les paul for metal, get something in Jackson, Ibanez , Dean etc . . .

  • thats a sweet guitar!

  • Beautiful finish. Just bought an Alpine white with gold hardware.

  • como quisiera tener una pero son muuy caras :(

  • Congrats man.................I remember the days when I got my studio except the color is wine red! This is awsome guitar and 4 a great price too!!!

    I advise these guitar to all advanced guitar players!!!! 'Cause its just awsome!!!!

  • I fucking love this guitar , owned one for 2 years now :)

  • I'm getting a gibson les paul for my birthday. My friends said its not common to get one. I think shes just jealous cause i'm getting something thats $2000 :)

  • cool im getting an epiphone les paul in 3 months should I get a studio or a standard

  • I want one with the chrome hardware

  • Remember watching this vid last year lol [:

    Its truely a beautiful guitar. I currently own a MIA Fender Tele and I think I might be pretty sold on a studio LP as a second guitar. That fire burst finish is just beyond beautiful.

    Great guitar mate. GAK ftw [:

  • oh by the way

    beautiful guitar :)

    by any chance, did your case smell like sick when you got it? :L mine still does

  • em... not sick, well last time i smelt it that wasn't what it smelt like :P smells more like... doesn't really :D

  • @fmcnally myne smelt like play do when i got it lol

  • i was very lucky to get mine at 750 just a month after the price went up!

  • I hate how faded finishes only come with a gigbag and not a case

  • @Oreo863096 I totally agree. When i read the description bout the guitar on the website where i was gonna get it, i immediately changed my mind to a polished one.

  • did you try it in a store first, or was it just shipped? and was there are damage? was the setup good.? any frets sticking out? im asking cuz im not sure if i want to order from there or not :P

  • No. Yes. No. Yes. No. And do order from there, they were very good :P

  • i bought this a few days ago, for £900, and i just LOVE it!

  • cool, u got it £57 cheaper than me :P

  • The sexiest thing on EARTH is a gibson les paul

  • Que hermosa guitarra!!

  • Fucking Beautiful guitar...i'm brazilian and didn't write so good...but how much is this awsome guitar? and where you bought it?

    tanx and TOO MUCH ROCK

  • :P You will have to look for Brazilian or South American stores to find prices, should be about $1300.

  • bad ass.. but look at all of those fingerprints!!!

  • I polish it all the time, so there rarely there =D

  • im looking at getting one. what do you use to polish it?

  • the cloth that came with it :P

  • ok. what material is it? saude?

  • mmm... its like glasses cleaner i think (i don't wear glasses so i don't know :P)

  • I'll just ask the guitar tech next time I go to the music store

  • bad ass

  • That's an awesome guitar! And Ozzy Osbourne is awesome!

  • just bought this guitar like a week ago!!!! i love it!! i got it in alpine white, and it is gorgeous!!!! the fireburst is really nice tho!!!! its a great guitar!!! love the pickups, and the ebony fretboard on it is gorgeous!!!! great guitar for the money!!! enjoy that guitar!!!!

  • hey man awsome vid , how is the guitar ?

  • Super!!!!! How much

  • Great video! I love the way the light reflects off the pickups! you have one beautiful axe there my friend - as far as i know the only difference betwee a studio and a standard is the binding on a standard... and who needs that? just play the hell out of it and enjoy playing the best guitar on the planet!!!

  • @humbuck59 Thanks man! =D

  • the coolest that u can get with a studio...which is unfortunantly still really crappy

  • @clondan wtf are you talking about.. if your saying gibson guitars are crappy why dont you try to handcraft a guitar

  • u didn't understand...for a gibson it is crappy compared to other gibsons...plus im not a fan of chambers.......bsides a really good company for handcrafting btw is WARMOTH...its pretty sick

  • This gibson les paul is just like other ones except it has a few dis-advantages...

  • Studio's, crappy? What Studios have you been listening to? Alot of famous bands have been using Les Paul Studios. Gibson does not make less than best,

    ~JP

  • How many times do i have to say this to everyone...they are not crappy, they are good instruments, but compared to higher end gibsons like traditionals, standards, and VOS's they are crap

  • what is the song

  • @doomdude873 Crazy Train by Ozzy Osbourne

  • I LOVE OZZY

    y have i never heard this i love him and sabbath

  • ill totally shit on my pants when i get this baby x)

  • @PeterDarrell7 I did too :P Even the UPS guy was like OMFG! (He played too I guess :P)

  • i´ve already ordered minee!!!!

    i can´t wait for it!!

    mine is fireburst GH too,I think it´s the coolest finish,but that is only my opinion

  • damn

  • i downloaded ps3 games on my laptop for sure enough free. google "ps3 quick download" and it's the very first link. What a absolutely great great game site. :) All the latest games can be downloaded from the "ps3 quick download" website! just google "ps3quickdownload"

  • the ebony just looks kinda cheap...it lacks the gold hardware so its kinda lame looking

  • awesome
