90's Studios are some of the best playing guitars out there.
Lemmo playing Stairway is a absolute treat. The dude is for sure not some Joe Schmo off the street butchering the heck out of the song. Outstanding version of Stairway. Lemme has just KILLED it.
90s Studios are some of the best Affordable Guitars Gibson has ever put out .... Great guitars
I’m looking at my les Paul studio my dad gave me from 1996, it’s no weight relief, wine red, no dot inlays it’s the trapezoids with a neck so fat I’m amazed I could even play it back in the day also has the kluson tuners. It’s sat next to my 59 les Paul and I couldn’t actually pick the better sounding one, they’re both going to the grave! Studios back then we’re standards without a flamed top… they are different guitars now
Never i thought studio will be on norman thats a good take!
Lemmo rocking the mushroom top😎 and the Les Paul.
Beautiful red finish. Great tone.
I own a 1992 Les Paul Studio in Wine Red, Gold Hardware, Ebony fingerboard. One of the best Les Pauls I have ever played.
Same here , gibson les paul studio 1991 best Lp I owned.
Top guitars !
I got a 2004 studio, then saved up and got an R9 to go with it, and to this day I think the studio sounds better. Great playing 👍
Thank you father Lemmo and Uncle Lemmo for having the wisdom and foresight to provide Michael a.quality instrument so early in his youth. Your son and nephew is a change maker and influencer of the best kind.
Lemmo just playing any guitar makes the value go way up. Mind blowing talent. Can’t wait to be able to see him playing live again!
I own two studios, a 91 & a 98 both with ebony fingerboards. 90s studios are killer axes.
So smooth sometimes you can't tell he's looping.
That’s a tasty version of Stairway!
I still have my Studio Lite! It’s translucent red with black hardware. Oh yeah and signed by Slash😁
WOW Lemmo, I don't know how you do it but you get better and better every time I hear you play! Killer!
Love how you customize Stairway, then do Crazy Train note for note.
Lemmo the Looper! 😁
I have a '98 Les Paul Studio in Ebony with gold hardware. It's a little beat up but it still sounds great.
For a 20+ year-old guitar, that is in absolutely amazing condition. It sounds incredible as well. Last year I bought a 2000 Jorma Kaukonen Riviera in an awesome cherry red colour that looked like it had been made last week, and not 20 years ago! How fantastic to score something like that.
I have a Gibson les Paul studio and it is a amazing guitar.. probably my favorite out of my collection
Man, Mike you killed it!!!!!..... superb playing...If I was 1/2 as good as you, I'd die a happy man
I have one of these! With Tonerider pickups and Page mod. So good!
Awesome Michael!
I have the exact guitar. Never have I seen another one. Awesom
Love it, my 2013 red wine
Les Paul studio.
I mated it to a DSL40C👍
I’m always amazed when you can see folks wandering around the shop when he is playing. Pretty sure I would be standing there close by just out of frame.
Mine is wine red (darker red with woodgrain) with gold hardware. It's my first Les Paul and I still use it as my main axe. The one Michael plays in the video looks like a Ferrari lol!
Gotta love a studio
Hey Play Free Bird!! Lol
Beautiful color
Yayyy I have one in lefty it's immaculate and inhate the colour but it was my first guitar of USA build
Looks just like a real guitar, only smaller.
Nice Stairway cover! I do love that tune so! 🎶😊👍
I have one just like this. 1st Les Paul I owned. Don't see too many in this red.
I have a 93 LP Studio Black/Gold Hardware-with P-90s!!! I got it Brand New; it has naturally reliced Nicely! Still plays like Buttah!!!! Sicck Plaiyng, Mike! 🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾
Great Demo.
I got a 2015 les Paul studio in Manhattan midnight blue as my first Les Paul. I got rid of the auto-tuner and to this day it’s one of my favorite guitars. There’s nothing wrong with a les Paul studio at all. Beat it up, change the pickups, do whatever you want without all the worry you’d have with a standard. Studios are great guitars!
Don’t worry with standards either, lifes to short to
Crazy train always fucking rocks
Nicely done. 🤘👍🤘👍🤘 🍻
Lemmo has to be one of the most engaging guitar reviewers on the www.
I have exactly the same guitar year, colour, gold hardware, pearl dots on neck. Outstanding guitar. The colour is Ruby Red and it is beautiful especially with the gold hardware. The colour is very rare. The reason is Gibson had a little Ruby Red paint left over from the 96-98 run of P-90 equipped 'gem' series Les Paul Studio's so used it on a few 98 Les Paul Studio's
I have had and have more expensive Les Paul's, however, this one is superb, up there with the top end at a lot less money.
Saw the shirt and I first thought of Junior Walker. Saw him late one night on Letterman. Dude was amazing. I was really young at the time and had no idea who he was or his track record in music. Blew me away. If you look up the back story on Foreigner's 'Urgent', it's pretty cool how he came to do the sax for that song. And on youtube you can find an old 80s live performance where he came on stage with the band. He was incredible.
Never been big on red guitars (hate blue guitars). But man, that thing is a beauty.
Lemmo gets a pass on the stairway rule...strictly on ability
Stairway.....accepted!
Heyyyyy! I have that same guitar. Cool to see!
Hey, my first Les Paul was a 1998 studio (black/gold). GREAT guitar, but my ex gave me the stank-eye when I got to 3 Les Pauls, 4 Strats, an Explorer EX-2 a J-Bass, and 6- and 12-string acoustics, so a couple of guitars had to go. (sad sigh) I miss those guitars!
My good friend had a gibson les paul studio, mid 90s one...his was dark burgundy......
Sounds great lemmo
I've got one in emerald green ❤
Sounds good
Could be a sleeper 🎸🎸🎸
No it's a studio.
Great top carve!
I wanna hear Jen play! I hope she's learning. That would be very cool.
All the LP stuff with none of the pretentious nonsense just a music maker and that’s a nice one.
He Killed That
sick version of stairway
Have an '89 with an ebony fretboard. My favorite guitar and one ive owned tge longest. Had to replace the pickups unfortunately and used 57 classic/57 classic+ to do so. Also upgraded the pots to what they put in the custom shop historic ones. Put some thin gold auto pin stripping tape around the body and pickguard and now its a STUNNER. I own a custom dean v, fender strat, les paul standard Gibson, and a rosewood hummingbird. With the upgrades this guitar looks better....very unique.
Sweet job Mike!!!! Love how you use the looper in all your vids to demonstrate a full sound man!! What reverb are you running I like the dissonance it adds!??
btfl! This period brought along amazing studios; especially thinkin towards white finished ones who got ebony fbs 😀 as well!
My first guitar is a 95 studio lite....still have it
Lemmo thanks for breaking the stairway rule, rocked some crazy train
I have this same Studio! I have always been curious about mine since I've never found another w the same Red finish/dot Inlays and single piece mahogany body. After doing some digging, in 98 they offered the Studio in the "Gem" finishes from the failed 97 Gem Series w P90s. Ebony was the only non-gem finish on 98 Studios, alongside Emerald, Amethyst and the beautiful Ruby👍. My first Les Paul and probably the only guitar I would never trade/sell.
Lemo, did you have a Studio Lite?? One of the greatest Les Pauls ever.
Try to find an earlier ebony board example from early 90s !
I think that might be a LP SL, or 'sans lacquer,' a poly finish in fender-style automotive paint Gibson did in the late 90s - very glossy and durable. Nice guitar, good for gigging if you want to keep your Standard as new as possible!
It's based on an automotive resin I think I read somewhere, very unique finish and you can still see the grain on mine.
Mike working that Studio! Those were like 8oo$ back when I was looking at them years ago
Nice guitar
Les Paul’s are great for rock ‘n’ roll
Very nice Lemmo, what kind of looper do use and how much are they ?
Are we just going to ignore the fact that Lemmo opened that case like a boss?
Best stairway version I’ve ever heard in a music store
That stairway will lead you straight to heaven
First person I ever seen play it right ✅🙃
I’ve got a studio lite. Great guitar. Light weight and Ebony board. Gibson should do a red top Les Paul. I’ve been after one for ages.
The music store MO of "Dont play Stairway" is BS. That tune is one of the greatest songs in rock history..Its played alot because its timeless and classic at the same time. I beg ANY of you Bugeeey retailers who have up those "No Stairway" signs to play us a multi platinum tune YOU WROTE....... I'm in my 50's and play stairway proudly where I want....
You can also protest that it's not Stairway; it's Eric Clapton's 'Let It Grow'...let the rock snobs scratch their chins at that one 😂
I play it Every time I happen to find an Epiphone EDS-1275 at a guitar store!
it would've been funny if Norm walked over and pointed Lemmo to the door
Do any stores actually have that sign up? Wasn't it just a Wayne's World joke? In any case, the joke wasn't that the song is bad but that several generations of wannabe guitarists would learn the Stairway opening and play it and butcher it to death
@@greg7656 yes stores had signs.. I remember them circa early 90's.. some eventually added "Teen spirit" later on.. What you keyed about guitar "wannabes" butchering the song makes music stores even dumber. They and we should embrace players and encourage them.. NOT EMBARRASS AND HUMILIATE them.. that kid butchering Stairway to heaven might be an eventual vintage guitar buyer.. or maybe the next Hendrix Page or Clapton. For God's sake dont run them off and away from the art
He ain't afraid of no reverb. He da' man.
What the!?!? That’s my guitar! Is my studio a collectors item now? Haha!
What amp is used in this demo?
I love my Gideon studio….nothing fancy but the sound is so there!
Why does it have dot inlays instead of trapezoid inlays, Beautiful Guitar..
Brother Mike I want that Gibson red Studio Les Paul I will call the store tomorrow Thanks your Pal Doc Thunder Colorado
Looks like a ladybug or a cut-in-half watermelon. I wish Gibson would do this on their Standards. I just bought an outrageously flamed new 2022 AAA Lemonburst Standard that everyone fawns over, but if Gibson was currently making Standards with solid colors like this Studio here, I'd have snapped one up immediately instead of the one I 'settled' for. Sounds insane, but I just love solid color top Les Pauls.
Have a wine red 93
how is it???? neck profile?
Lol Lemmo is so damn good at guitar
FECK 🤘🏻
Why do you guys record the playing before you record the introduction? Just wondering.
@@anyapossomhandsacker518 There was one Strat video recently where Lemmo said “I forgot to put on the whammy bar” in the intro and he didn’t have it on for the performance. So I think they might film the intro last.
@@leamanc no you’re right, he even said at the start of this video that he had already mentioned his friend owning a similar guitar out front, and later in the video he says it like it’s for the first time; I’m not really sure why they do it either, I guess it’s so he already has a feel for how the guitar plays so it gives him something to talk about at the start? Idk haha
I miss when the studios had dot inlays. For some reason, I just love the dots on lower end guitars like this. It's one of the reasons I want a Les Paul Special.
Man the les Paul special in tv yellow has been really calling my name lately
@@markrosenquist8259 I want that thing so bad haha
@@michaelsguitars3079 go get it brother
@@markrosenquist8259 I will some day. Gibsons are out of my range with my current financial situation. I have a Gibson SG that's holding me over nicely until I can get one.
@@michaelsguitars3079 I understand. Love SGs so you’re definitely good until you can get the special. 🤙🤘🏻
😲
Was the beginning of that first song by Spirit? 😁
I'm sure Randy California's family wishes that was the case... Cha-ching💲💲
Lemmo NEEDS to be Ozzy's guitarist for the final tour.
That would be good but Ozzy can't deal with the hair.
Lemmo is no rocker, he likes to strum esoteric jazz chords after he's smoked a jazz cigarette...
@@boss123400 Who doesn't?
Man never heard a Studio sound so good! Goes to show that it's the guitarist that makes the guitar! However! Gotta do a Maton!
Norm threw all the Matons away..
"Tele". Savalas "Who Loves You Baby"?
Love the Gibson how much is the price
It should be about $700 but I doubt it.
In 1998 it was probably maybe $900 new.
@@guitarocd9984 that’s not bad
I said it should be $700. I'm sure they are charging more. New ones now are $1,400.
@@guitarocd9984 the awesome guitars if I ordered one from you all could you get Rogo and Norman to sign it
#NoStairway
Sounds great.....
Wonder why they went with gold hardware....
Would have preferred nickel with the red....
disagree. this will sell instantly thanks to the gold hardware (and lemmo of course)
It may sell unless it's at a ridiculous price.
Tele Tuesday....without the tele.......!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah!
🙄
Can’t do better than Stairway and Crazy Train.
What about comfortably numb and whole lotta love? Or kashmir? Lol
He forgot Sweet Child O' Mine. All of the guitar store hits.
@@guitarocd9984 True. He did put his own spin on it.
I have a man crush on Lemmo.
I have the same guitar but with silver hardware. (Made and bought in 2000) I guess I am now considered vintage to…
What did it cost in 2000 $850?
@@guitarocd9984 I paid around 1400$ Canadian for it. (With taxes around 1600$ can. It wasn’t cheap but the price is pretty much the same now adjusted with inflation. (Studio LP now sell for around 1900-2000$ can)
Next time come on across the border and get yourself one.
@@guitarocd9984 This is something I wanted to do but exchange rate was horrible…and you have to declare it to customs on your way back and pay taxes. At the end it would make it more expansive.
Yeah I guess. The government loves our money.
Perhaps if we chose a more funky and truly vintage ax for GOTD it would
draw Carlos Guitarlos out of hiding (?)
...not this isn't a really cool Gibby IMHO
sound copyrights problem here😅✌️
