1958 Gibson Les Paul TV Junior , Serial Number 8 4100
The Les Paul Junior was released in 1954 as an option for student players seeking Les Paul quality and heritage in a more affordable instrument. In 1955, one year after the Les Paul Junior was introduced, Gibson debuted the Les Paul TV, identical to the Junior aside from what would become its iconic finish. Though originally intended as a student instrument, it soon became a favorite among advanced players as well for its no-frills approach and pure, unfiltered tone.
This very rare, single-cut 1958 Gibson Les Paul TV Junior remains in all-original condition, showing moderate lacquer checking, play wear, and nicks throughout. There is one larger dent on the front of the guitar between the tone knob and the strap button, as well as two small dents that have been touched up. The guitar has undergone an expert plane and re-fret with medium jumbo fretwire by Gibson Repair & Restoration, ensuring excellent playability. It retains its original P-90 pickup, Kluson Deluxe tuners, and Wraparound tailpiece, delivering all the raw, punchy tone that has made the Junior legendary.
Ships in a new Lifton Historic Gator Skin hardshell case, with the original chipboard case included separately. Includes a Certificate of Authenticity, Letter of Appraisal, and new Limited Lifetime Warranty.
