GIBSON Les Paul Studio 2016 HP EB Ebony Chrome Hardware
The Gibson Les Paul Studio 2016 is designed for players who give top priority to the sound, playability and functional features of the instrument. Instead of visually appealing refinements in the form of bindings or elaborate inlays, the studio models offer the best price/performance ratio and - as the name suggests - feel most comfortable as a workhorse in the studio.
Two classic 490R and 498T humbuckers form the sound setup of this Les Paul, which is controlled by separate volume and tone controls for each pickup and a 3-way toggle switch. For optimal tuning results Gibson provides the LP Studio with an innovative G-Force system, while a traditional Tune-o-Matic bridge is responsible for adjusting intonation and string position.

I think you get a lot of sound for the money, but the finess in craftsmanship is lacking, you don't have to buy the most expensive Les Paul to get the best sound.
