Simple and elegant, the Les Paul Junior is an affordable, basic Les Paul finished in cool nitro lacquer finishes. Think of them as set-neck, single-cutaway hot rods. Gibson's new black obeche fingerboards look exotic and feel great on the slim-taper 60s neck profile.

Introduced in '55 as an affordable alternative to the Les Paul's carved-top luxury, the Gibson Les Paul Junior Electric Guitar -- a one-pickup, flattop cruisin' machine -- caught on quickly and climbed right into guitar legend. The Les Paul Junior is crafted by Gibson artisans in Nashville, Tennessee with a set neck and compensated wraparound bridge/tailpiece that provide solid intonation and vibrant resonance. The solid mahogany body and set neck add to the resonance and great sustain while the single dog-ear P-90 pickup dishes out single-coil high definition with added punch— beautiful electric guitar tone through a lightly or heavily pushed amp. Black obeche fretboard with 22 frets and dot inlays. Chrome hardware.
