Location: Columbus OH and Cape Coral FL | I have a 2006 Les Paul Studio Gloss Burst in immaculate condition with Gibson Bag. $825.00, but would rather trade. See pics below:
http://atlanta.craigslist.org/nat/msg/3061272776.html
I am willing to trade for a U.S. made Ovation cutaway shallow depth or mid-depth bowl in excellent condition, preferably with HSC but an Ovation bag might be o.k. too. Since I already have black, any other color will be considered. Would prefer an epaulet model, but will consider all.
I have a long history of honest sales on Ebay. Please feel free to email me at mjfesler@att.net or call at 678-926-3040.
Thanks for looking!

For me I've given 2 of my 4 ovation acoustics away recently so I would be acoustically poor and down to my single Adamas if I traded my Elite.
But I was looking! Your studio looks to be in exceptional condition and I have been wanting a les Paul. |

Thanks1 |

Marketing?
Irrational Exuberance?
Wishful Thinking?

Location: Columbus OH and Cape Coral FL | Since it is my instrument, I'll weigh in. The main differences are:
1) Binding on body and neck on Les Paul Standard; not on Studio.
2) Les Paul Standard has a slightly greater body thickness, and thus weighs more.
3) Standard normally comes with Gibson's highest grade pickup, a PAF humbucker, the Studio with a different pickup.
The finish quality is actually the same high standard Gibson has for all models above the "Faded" series.
Given an equal set-up, playability is the same for both. Many people who are going to use a LP on a regular basis prefer one that weighs less than nine or ten pounds.
The finish on the guitar I am selling is outstanding, and I think that comes through in my pics. |

Location: Latitude 39.56819, Longitude -105.080066 | thanks for weighing in. I was/am interested but a bit confused cause yours comes with a gig bag which seems to be what the $800 comes with (which is basically your asking price).
so...I am still confused. |

Location: Columbus OH and Cape Coral FL | A cherryburst Les Paul Studio Gloss (again, not a Tribute) goes for more than $800.00, and more than the painted or single color stained models. My price reflects that, and the condition of the instrument. Note also what some of the Faded series are going for.
I appreciate your interest. |

Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | I have a Standard that came stock with Burstbucker Pros. I don't now if these are the PAFs or something different, but they're maybe the most sensitive pickups in any electric I own. I just wished it was a lighter guitar. |

Location: Atlanta | Fyi, gibson has 2 models of the studio now. So I don't believe the question was asking in reference to the studio vs standard. This studio model should have sold for $1100-1200 new with a gig bag. Same fit and finish as the current 1300 model, but with a bag instead of case |
