Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
For a streamlined Les Paul in Ocean Blue, the Studio Faded combines a maple-topped mahogany body with Ultra Modern weight relief, a SlimTaper mahogany neck, and a bound Indian rosewood fingerboard. Its two Burstbucker Pro humbuckers are routed through separate volume and tone controls, with push/pull coil tapping on the volume pots. That puts brighter, more open single-coil-style textures within the same straightforward two-humbucker layout. The satin nitrocellulose lacquer is part of the Faded Series look, and a soft case accompanies the guitar.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Stage or studio parts that call for both humbucker output and coil-tapped textures.
- Players looking for a weight-relieved Les Paul in the Ocean Blue finish.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players needing a left-handed guitar; this model is right handed.
