A true player’s classic, this 1992 Gibson Les Paul Studio in Wine Red delivers the unmistakable Les Paul recipe: muscular humbucker power, rock‑solid tuning stability, and endless sustain. Factory‑equipped with a 490R neck and 498T bridge humbucker, it covers everything from rounded, articulate cleans to chewy classic‑rock crunch and saturated high‑gain lead tones. The familiar 3‑way toggle plus independent volume and tone controls encourage expressive, amp‑friendly shaping without the need for coil‑splits.
Anchoring it all is a hardtail Tune‑O‑Matic bridge with stopbar tailpiece for precise intonation, confident palm‑mutes, and dependable stage performance. Built the Gibson way, it pairs a solid mahogany body with a carved maple top for warmth, focus, and that signature midrange punch. A set mahogany neck enhances sustain and note bloom, while the pickup pairing balances vintage flavor with modern authority: the Alnico II 490R offers smooth lows and singing mids, and the Alnico V 498T adds upper‑mid bite and tight low end that cuts through a mix.
Playability is fast and familiar thanks to the 24.75" scale, 12" rosewood fingerboard radius, and 22 medium‑jumbo frets. The slim‑taper profile from the early ’90s feels quick in the hand without sacrificing grip for rhythm work, and it rewards dynamic touch—cleaning up beautifully with a roll of the volume and opening into rich harmonic sustain when you dig in. Expect low action and spot‑on intonation that makes long sets effortless.
Seasoned and stage‑ready, this Studio bears the character of a well‑loved instrument, including a professionally repaired, rock‑solid neck crack that’s now purely cosmetic with no impact on stability or tone. It’s the straight‑ahead Les Paul sound—warmth, weight, and authority—without the vintage price tag. Max Guitar techs have checked setup and electronics.
