Gibson states;
“The Les Paul Studio has long enjoyed a reputation as a modern, no-frills guitar for the studio musician. Known for its tremendous harmonic and sonic capabilities, the world’s most desired Les Paul adds another level of versatility with the Swamp Ash Studio. A harder, more uniformly dense wood, swamp ash has huge, open pores with both hard and soft layers within each ring of the tree. Considered very resonant across the entire frequency spectrum, this unique wood allows the Les Paul Swamp Ash Studio to produce clear bell-like highs, distinct mids and robust lows; resulting in one of the more resounding Les Pauls ever built. The Swamp Ash Studio retains many of the iconic Les Paul’s traditional elements, including a hand-carved top and a neck crafted from a single piece of mahogany, hand-sanded to perfection and given Gibson’s traditional ’50s rounded profile.”
Imperial Guitar says;
We’ve always liked the Studio models for live as well as studio use. They offer a lot of bang for your buck in a subdued no frills Les Paul. The pickup upgrade suits this instrument quite well.
This is a great sounding and smooth playing “Paul”.
Original hard shell case included.

If you ask they will be answered. They are free and there's no limit. Additional photos can also be made available.
