Product Description

Raw, Unfiltered Rock and Roll Power

There’s a reason the Les Paul Junior has been a legend for decades. It’s not about fancy frills or complicated wiring; it’s about the purest connection between wood, a pickup, and your hands. This Gibson Les Paul Junior Double Cut in Vintage Cherry is a straight-up rock machine, built for players who want to plug in and let it rip. The resonant, all-mahagony body and neck provide a warmth and sustain that you can feel in your chest, while the gloss nitro finish lets the wood breathe and age gracefully, just like a great instrument should.

The Heart of the Beast: One P-90

Don’t let the single pickup fool you. The Dogear P-90 in the bridge position is a universe of tone all on its own. It has the bite and snarl of a single-coil but with a fatter, warmer midrange that cuts through a mix without getting harsh. Roll the volume back for surprisingly sweet, clean tones with a glassy top end. Crank it up, and you unleash a torrent of glorious, touch-sensitive grit. The controls are hand-wired with an Orange Drop capacitor, ensuring every nuance of your playing comes through with rich harmonic detail.

Effortless Playability

The double-cutaway design isn’t just for looks; it gives you wide-open access to the upper frets for screaming solos. The neck features Gibson’s popular SlimTaper profile, a comfortable shape that feels fast and familiar from the first chord. Combined with a 12-inch radius rosewood fingerboard and 22 medium-jumbo frets, this guitar is built for deep bends and effortless riffing all night long.

The Lowdown

We get it. Buying a guitar you haven’t played is a big decision. You need to know it’s going to feel right, sound right, and inspire you the second you open the case. We put together the questions we’d be asking if we were in your shoes—the real-world stuff that specs alone can’t answer. If there’s anything else you’re wondering about, just give us a call.

Absolutely. The magic of the Junior is its simplicity. The P-90 is incredibly dynamic and responsive to your volume and tone controls. You can get bright, articulate cleans by rolling the volume back, and raw, powerful overdrive when you open it up. It’s a surprisingly versatile setup that has been used by pros for decades.
The wraparound bridge provides a direct, solid connection between the strings and the mahogany body. This enhances sustain and resonance, giving the guitar a very lively and resonant feel. It’s a key part of that classic, straightforward Les Paul Junior tone.
Of course. Every guitar gets our full Player-Perfect™ setup, but tell us your preferred string gauge and action at checkout, and we’ll dial it in exactly to your spec before it leaves the shop.
This guitar is covered by our 14-Day Return Policy. If you’re not completely inspired by it, just let us know. We’ll make it right.
Orders ship same day in most cases and arrive within 1-4 business days with free, insured shipping. We’ll get it into your hands as quickly as we can.
Call us at (888) 794-8482. You’ll talk to a real musician who can answer anything you need to know.
