The One — Now with a Striking New Look
Gibson proudly introduces the Les Paul Studio Double Trouble. Building on the overwhelming response to the limited-edition Les Paul Standard Double Trouble models, Gibson is expanding the lineup to bring the Double Trouble experience to even more players. The Les Paul Studio Double Trouble delivers everything guitarists expect from a Les Paul Studio — exceptional performance, versatility, and unmistakable tone — while adding a bold new visual identity. Its exposed Burstbucker Pro pickups feature distinctive Double Classic White bobbins for a look that commands attention on stage.
Some guitars make an immediate impression. The moment you pick them up, they simply feel right, allowing your ideas to flow naturally into your playing. They become trusted companions, creative tools, and sources of inspiration night after night. The Les Paul Studio Double Trouble was designed to be exactly that kind of instrument: the guitar you instinctively reach for and rely on every time you play. For decades, the Les Paul Studio has earned the loyalty of guitarists who appreciate the essential elements of the Les Paul design — humbucking pickups, a glued-in set neck, and the iconic mahogany body with maple cap — without the added expense or embellishment of higher-tier models. The Studio Double Trouble carries that legacy forward with a fresh, confident personality.
At its core, the Les Paul Studio Double Trouble features an ultra-modern weight-relieved mahogany body, reducing overall weight while improving comfort during extended playing sessions, whether you're on stage or in the studio. A carved plain maple cap adds clarity and attack, complementing the warmth, depth, and powerful midrange character of the mahogany body to deliver the unmistakable Les Paul voice heard on countless classic recordings and performances. The glued-in mahogany neck contributes to exceptional resonance and sustain, while its traditional heel and fast SlimTaper™ profile provide a familiar, comfortable playing experience.
The bound rosewood fingerboard features acrylic trapezoid inlays, 22 medium-jumbo frets, and a 12" radius, making everything from smooth chord work to expressive bends feel natural and effortless. Vintage Deluxe tuners with Keystone buttons reinforce the guitar's timeless aesthetic, while the aluminum Nashville Tune-O-Matic™ bridge, lightweight aluminum stop bar tailpiece, and Graph Tech nut provide reliable tuning stability and performance from one gig to the next.
The electronics are equally versatile and designed with the player in mind. A matched pair of Gibson Burstbucker™ Pro pickups delivers the power, clarity, articulation, and dynamic response today's players demand. Left uncovered and finished with Double Classic White bobbins, the pickups provide a distinctive visual statement to match their impressive tone. A three-way pickup selector makes it easy to move between neck, bridge, and combined pickup settings, while independent volume controls give you precise control over blended tones. Each volume knob features a push/pull coil-tap function, allowing you to access single-coil-style textures from either pickup. Individual tone controls provide even more flexibility, giving the Les Paul Studio Double Trouble an exceptionally broad sonic range. With its impressive sustain, natural resonance, powerful pickups, and extensive tonal versatility, the Les Paul Studio Double Trouble is ready for virtually any style of music or playing situation.
The Les Paul Studio Double Trouble captures the essence of the Les Paul concept and refreshes it for today's musicians — players who are looking for something more personal than simply another guitar. They're looking for their guitar. The one they connect with, rely on, and reach for every time. Available as a limited-run model, quantities are finite. If the Les Paul Studio Double Trouble is the one you've been waiting for, now is the time to make it yours.
