A Fine and Original Single-Cut Les Paul Junior - This One Bites!
This 13-inch-wide electric solid body weighs just 7.00 lbs. and has a wonderful fat neck profile, a nut width of 1 11/16 inches and a standard Gibson scale length of 24 3/4 inches. Solid mahogany body with two-color brown-to-yellow Sunburst finish on top and brown finish on back and sides, mahogany neck, and unbound Brazilian rosewood fretboard with 22 all original frets and inlaid pearl dot markers. Headstock with "Gibson" logo and "Les Paul Junior" silk-screened in gold. Three-in-a-line Kluson Deluxe 'single-line' no-name strip tuners with white plastic buttons. Serial number ("513092") stamped in black on the back of the headstock. One hot P-90 pickup with an output of 7.56k. Single-layer black plastic pickguard with three screws. Two controls (one volume, one tone) on lower treble bout, potentiometers stamped "615 2632 548" (ROC November 1955) and "134 542" (Centralab October 1955). "Bumble-Bee" capacitor. Gold plastic bell-shape "Bell" knobs. Original combination wrap-over bar bridge/tailpiece. There is almost no body checking on this fifty-five year old 'closet-freak' - just three tiny surface marks on the top, a few tiny surface marks on the edges of the body, and some slight wear to the edges of the headstock. The original thin frets show very little wear and this guitar plays and sounds exactly as it should. Overall in 9.00 exceptionally fine condition. Housed in a seventies Gibson brown five-latch hardshell case with purple plush lining (8.50).
