For sale is a 1993 Gibson Les Paul Studio finished in Ebony, a sought-after early 90s example featuring the original ebony fingerboard, a specification appreciated by many players for its fast feel and articulate response.

The guitar is 100% original, with only one functional upgrade: the original nut has been professionally replaced with a Tusq nut to improve tuning stability. There has never been any headstock repair or break.

The instrument has been professionally set up and plays perfectly, with a low, comfortable action. The frets are in very good condition with plenty of life remaining.

As is common with many Gibson guitars from this era, the nitrocellulose finish shows light checking in a few areas, adding to its vintage character. There are also two small dings on the body (please refer to the photos). Compared to rosewood, I personally find that the ebony fingerboard delivers a tighter, snappier attack with greater note definition, making it particularly well suited to rock and metal styles.
