If you’re looking for a pure rock and roll machine, the Gibson USA Les Paul Junior is a contender that you should strongly consider!

With its distinctive yet timeless singlecut body shape, a punchy P90 bridge pickup and the renowned Gibson construction, this instrument is as stylish as it is potent-sounding. The Les Paul Junior is the perfect blend of beauty and simplicity.

Construction

Featuring Gibson’s staple tonewood combinations, the Les Paul Junior is comprised of a Mahogany body and a Mahoganyy neck. With the rich-sounding Mahogany serving as a fantastic tonal foundation for the powerful P90, this material delivers a strong mid-range and a focused low-end.

Adorned with a silky smooth Rosewood fingerboard, you can effortlessly glide up and the Vintage 50s neck profile is thick and fills the hand nicely.

Electronics & Hardware

The Gibson USA 2019 Les Paul Junior features a single P90 in the bridge, but it’s more versatile than you might think. Although punk players will adore its potent sound, this Gibson-designed P90 is actually incredibly dynamic, reacting very well to the volume and tone controls.

This means that you can tame some of the pickup’s output for a thinner and less aggressive sound, and also reduce some top-end for a creamy lead tone, or a smoother-sounding clean.

With a Compensated Wraparound bridge, this reliable design feels solid and smooth under the right hand when palm-muting, with no jagged saddles digging into your picking hand.

Gibson has ensured that this guitar projects an old-school vibe, which is why they have fitted the Les Paul Junior with a set of their Vintage Deluxe tuners. Featuring understated white buttons, these tuners have a stable feel with a steady rotation, meaning that you can precisely tune each string.

They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.

The Important stuff

Burst — A burst finish refers to a guitar finish where the colour gradually fades from a darker outer edge to a lighter centre. This technique highlights the natural grain of the wood while giving the instrument depth and visual character, making each guitar look slightly different. Common on both electric and acoustic guitars, burst finishes range from classic sunburst styles to modern colour variations. They are popular because they combine a traditional look with a visually striking appearance that complements the shape and craftsmanship of the guitar.. Les. Paul. Vintage — Vintage describes gear that is inspired by, or originates from, an earlier era of guitar design and sound. Vintage-style pedals, guitars, and amplifiers focus on classic tones, simpler circuits, and traditional aesthetics, delivering warm, characterful sounds that are closely associated with early rock, blues, and classic recordings..
