1956 Gibson Les Paul Junior
This 1956 Gibson Les Paul Junior is a prime example of why single P90 rock machines have remained so beloved. With its Mahogany body and set Mahogany neck, this Junior resonates beautifully, delivering the raw, dynamic tone that defines the model. The original dog-ear P-90 pickup provides punchy mids, clear highs, and a growling low end that excels in everything from warm cleans to aggressive overdrive. The simple yet effective wraparound bridge ensures excellent sustain and a lively response. The classic ’50s neck profile offers a comfortable, substantial feel, making it a joy to play.
