Get more control of your sound, keep things simple and keep a tight budget with the Gibson Les Paul Studio Deluxe IV. Its no-frills appearance hides some amazing electronics underneath.

Similar to the Les Paul Traditional Pro IV, the construction on the Deluxe IV features the classic tonewood combination of a mahogany body and maple top, along with a set mahogany neck. The “Vintage C” neck profile is easy to love and makes playing a pure pleasure.

What sets the Les Paul Studio Deluxe IV apart from other guitars in its price range are the pickups and controls onboard. We’ve got a BurstBucker 2 at the neck, and a BurstBucker 3 at the bridge for convincing PAF tones reminiscent of Les Paul guitars from the ’50s.

You’ll find authentic tones using the three-way switch, and even more possibilities with its advanced electronics. Each volume control has a push/push pot to engage coil-splitting for that pickup. The neck tone control is also push/push to give you a 10 decibel gain boost that’s ideal for lead work.

The chrome hardware is rugged, reliable and just what you’d expect from a Gibson guitar of this quality. You’ve got a tune-o-matic bridge with stopbar tailpiece for easy string changes and adjustment, and Grover tuners to keep your tuning rock solid.

Complete with hardshell case, the Gibson Les Paul Deluxe IV is made to take you to the next level and give you more advanced control of your sound.
