Gibson Les Paul Tribute vs Gibson Les Paul Studio - Side by Side Comparison

Our Les Paul comparisons continue this week as we take a closer look at the Gibson Les Paul Studio & Tribute to find out if there's anything more than a glossy paint job to separate these two 'budget' models from the big 'G'. Join us for lot's of waffle and playing as per usual guitar nerds!!

IDIOT ALERT: I am not an expert. Some things I do know and some things I don't know but think I know and sometimes I say things that are not entirely correct. Once I have said things it's too late to correct them so please check any 'so called facts' with an adult, google, wikipedia, or someone else that knows.

We run this channel to provide therapy for our gear addiction and for an excuse to buy more. Re-Launched during lockdown 2020/2021 we are experimenting with ideas to see what sticks, so any feedback you give is most welcome. Please like and subscribe if you would like to support the channel!
