A great left-handed guitar should feel like a choice you’re excited to make, not a compromise. The Gibson Les Paul Studio Blueberry Burst Left-Handed brings that spirit to a familiar single-cutaway design, pairing a striking finish with practical features for players who want to get straight to making music.
With Burstbucker Pro pickups, a SlimTaper neck, and coil-splitting controls, this Studio offers more to explore than its bold looks alone. Here’s a closer look at what makes it worth your attention.
Blueberry Burst with a personality of its own
The finish immediately sets this guitar apart. Bright blue across the maple top transitions into purple at the edges, with the wood grain visible beneath the color. A black pickguard and black control knobs give the front a clean contrast, letting the finish do the talking.
Underneath that nitrocellulose lacquer finish is a maple-capped mahogany body with Gibson’s Ultra-Modern weight relief. It’s a construction choice aimed at reducing weight while keeping the familiar Les Paul format. For players thinking about longer rehearsals or gigs, that’s a detail worth considering alongside neck feel and balance.
Humbucker character, with extra textures on tap
A pair of Gibson USA Burstbucker Pro pickups provides the Studio’s PAF-flavored humbucker foundation. Think of that as the starting point for exploring everything from chord-driven rhythm parts to expressive lead lines, with your amp and playing touch shaping the final result.
The push-pull volume knobs add another useful option: coil splitting. This gives you access to leaner, single-coil-style textures without changing guitars. If your songs move between fuller humbucker sounds and lighter passages, those controls are worth exploring rather than leaving untouched.
A neck built for getting on with the music
The mahogany neck features Gibson’s SlimTaper profile and a traditional heel. A bound Indian rosewood fingerboard adds a finished edge, while acrylic trapezoid inlays deliver a recognizable Les Paul detail.
Neck comfort is personal, but if you prefer a slimmer profile, this is an important part of the Studio’s appeal. It’s a guitar to consider for moving between rhythm work and lead playing without choosing a deliberately chunky neck shape.
The familiar details, front and back
The headstock carries the Gibson logo, Les Paul Model lettering, and a Studio truss rod cover. Turn the guitar around and the deep blue-purple finish continues across the back and neck, with black rear cavity covers completing the look.
A soft bag is included, adding a practical finishing touch to the package.
