Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Designed for stage, studio, and rehearsal rotation, the Cherry Les Paul Studio Session combines an Ultra Modern weight-relieved mahogany body and carved AA figured maple cap with a SlimTaper mahogany neck and bound ebony fingerboard. Its ’57 Classic neck pickup and ’57 Classic+ bridge pickup are matched to individual push/pull volume coil taps plus push/pull tone controls for phase switching and Pure Bypass. A Modern Contoured Heel improves upper-fret access, while a soft case comes with the guitar.
