A Les Paul in its most basic form—without any compromises.
Gibson USA's Les Paul Studio Raw Power is the Les Paul in its most basic form, yet built like none other before. It starts with a highly resonant lightweight chambered maple body with a matching traditional carved maple top, resulting in a more articulate, bright tone. A maple fingerboard gives each played note a snappier response. A pair of Gibson's renowned '57 Classic pickups provides all the clear punch and muscle of those legendary "PAFs." The Raw Power Les Paul comes in a variety of satin 'nitro' finishes. All the rest of the basics remain the same: 22-fret solid maple neck, a volume and control knob for each pickup, one three-way toggle switch, Grover Kluson-style green key tuners and Gibson's pioneering Tune-o-matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece. The new Les Paul Studio Raw Power from Gibson USA is solid. It's dependable. And most of all, it's affordable — without any compromises. Includes Gibson gigbag.
