Falcatta Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Hey Guys So I picked up a 2004 Studio that I can not Identify. Serial number 02004535. First off it's Solid Blue but not a Gem Series. Standard Humbuckers. The neck seems to be a 60's slim taper like the 2 classics I have and even has the same old style Tuners. Where it get's weird is that it also has a ebony Fretboard. I have already swapped the picups so I had a look inside and everything is Typical Gibson wiring so I'm fairly sure that this isn't some srt of knock off and it sounds and feels like a LP when playing it. I just can not figure out exactly what it is and it's driving me crazy. :) The original hardware was the black plastic and I changed it ut to chrome. Let me know what you guys think.

BigKahune Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 That is a great lookin' Studio. Love the chrome. B) Possibly a mod? Email Gibson with the serial and snaps. They should be able to fill you in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rd_artist Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 that doesn't look like an ebony fretboard to me, it looks like a very dark rosewood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcatta Posted February 5, 2011 Author Share Posted February 5, 2011 that doesn't look like an ebony fretboard to me, it looks like a very dark rosewood. It's the flash on the camera. I have an ebony on my Ovation and it looks the same. All my other Les Pauls are Rosewood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
