Contains bona fide Les Paul DNA
Although the Les Paul Studio Double Trouble was designed as a stripped-down, no-frills version of the Les Paul, there’s no mistaking this solidbody electric guitar for anything but a genuine Gibson Les Paul. This instrument boasts all the essential Les Paul features, such as a mahogany body, a maple top, a glued-in set neck, and Gibson USA humbuckers. Moreover, the Les Paul Studio Double Trouble also includes 1-ply fingerboard binding and split-coil, cream-colored Burstbucker Pro pickups, easily making it the most feature-laden Studio ever.
Burstbucker Pro: a modern spin on classic PAF sonics
Gibson’s Burstbucker pickups rest firmly in Sweetwater’s pickup pantheon as a top-tier PAF, but what if you’re after more power than a vintage-style humbucker can provide? Enter the Burstbucker Pro, a fatter, more powerful spin on time-tested PAF sonics. Burstbucker Pro pickups deliver all the classic characteristics of a top-notch PAF — exceptional clarity, a remarkably dynamic feel, and ample vintage-accurate warmth — but swap out the lower-output Alnico II magnets for Alnico V. This results in a more aggressive attack and enhanced low-end response. Moreover, Burstbucker Pro pickups feature wax potting to reduce hum and squeal. For the player seeking a vintage-style PAF who’s not afraid to venture into higher-gain territory, you’d be hard-pressed to beat Gibson’s Burstbucker Pro humbuckers.
Your conduit to effortless playability
Players who find vintage Les Pauls heavy and unwieldy (but who love them anyway) will be pleasantly surprised when they pick up the Gibson Les Paul Studio Double Trouble. To start, its Ultra-Modern weight-relieved construction reduces the guitar’s weight without affecting the natural acoustic tone of its maple-over-mahogany body. Its SlimTaper neck profile and traditional heel provide outstanding hand-cradling comfort. Finally, the Les Paul Studio Double Trouble’s bound rosewood fingerboard ensures a smooth feel that’s guaranteed to yield hours upon hours of inspired playing. Simply put, the Les Paul Studio Double Trouble was tailor-made for marathon-length gigs; it’s a Les Paul you can play for as long as you want without repeated trips to the chiropractor.
