Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Cherry is the finish option here on the Les Paul Studio Faded: a right-handed, 22-fret solidbody with a weight-relieved mahogany body, maple top, and satin nitrocellulose lacquer. The SlimTaper mahogany neck joins a bound Indian rosewood fingerboard, while a pair of Burstbucker Pro humbuckers handles the pickup work. Each volume control has a push/pull coil-tap function, giving access to brighter single-coil-style textures as well as the guitar’s humbucker output. The control set remains direct: two volumes, two tones, and a three-way toggle.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Using coil-tapped sounds alongside humbucker output without changing guitars.
- Players seeking the Cherry finish in the Guitar Center Exclusive Faded Series.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Left-handed players, since this is a right-handed instrument.
