Most people here compare their SB59's with customs shop LP's costing triple the price of the SB59. I have the same experience as most people here, I must say. Though my SB59 has Amber Spirit of '59 pickups. Most incredible LP sound I've ever heard.

All guitars are different (I know I'm stating the obvious). To be honest, I would expect the Eastman SB59 to sound different to the Les Paul Studio and to my mind there is not much point comparing them. You either like the sound of a guitar and the way it plays or you don't. The Studio sounds like a fantastic guitar and obviously does it for you, which is great. It might be a good time to flick the SB59, if that is what you want to do, as they are in short supply at the moment and you will turn it over pretty quickly I'm sure.
