The Junior Gets Its Wings
Gibson Custom Shop is the pinnacle of craftsmanship, quality, and sound excellence. Each instrument celebrates Gibson’s legacy through accuracy, authenticity, and attention to detail.
1958 was a monumental year for Gibson in which a whole new lineup of now-famous models was introduced. One of them was the redesigned double cutaway Les Paul Junior, which has since found its place in music history as a favorite of hard rock musicians, especially when they have a broken-in feel like this one. The extra fret access of the double-cut construction allows upper octave leads, while the simple is better single-pickup setup projects a thick, heavy tone.
This is the first double-cutaway TV Yellow Junior from the Murphy Lab, and were offering it at the Heavy Aged level, so it fills a hole in the current Murphy Lab lineup. The 50s Rounded Medium C neck feels fantastic. its all about that extra roll from the Murphy Lab treatment that gives them the feel of a vintage original. Other highlights include a nylon nut, 1-ply Tortoiseshell celluloid pickguard, black Top Hat knobs, a black Dogear P-90 wired to master Volume and master Tone controls using CTS 500k audio taper potentiometers and Paper-in-Oil capacitors. You will also enjoy the included Lifton Historic Gator Skin Hardshell Case.
