Overview

The Les Paul Junior returns to the classic design that made it relevant, played and loved -- shaping sound across generations and genres of music. It pays tribute to Gibson's Golden Era of innovation and brings authenticity back to life.

Introduced as an affordable option for students and beginners in 1954, the Les Paul Junior has been embraced by musicians for over 60 years. The single cutaway slab mahogany body, single dogear P-90 pickup, single volume and tone controls all add up to a whole lot of guitar which is greater than the sum of its parts. The fat 50's-style neck profile and wraparound bridge add to the equation for rock solid tone.

I have owned this guitar for 5 months and I love it. I have to admit I have not played many guitars (I was drawn to this one because of Lukas Nelson and the sound he has). I really like the P90 pickup and how this guitar has nice simplicity and yet versatility at the same time. You can really make different tones despite having one pickup. It combines very well with the pedals I like to use, and when also adjusting the tone knob you can really do a lot of things to adjust your tone. It's an awesome guitar to hold and feels very high quality. It came set up well and was ready to go right out of the box. Overall I'm a big fan and I'm really glad to have this guitar which I foresee as my go-to for years to come.

Ease of Use

Easy to get good sounds. Combines well with pedals. Very playable.

Quality

Feels very well constructed.

The Wow Factor

It looks amazing.
