Gibson Les Paul Junior Cherry 1988

Gibson Les Paul Junior Cherry 1988

Gibson's "Les Paul Jr." was introduced in 1954 as an introductory machine that even students could afford.By adopting a flat-top mahogany body and omitting binding, it was a model that was sold as a high cost performance that allows you to enjoy Gibson sound at a more affordable price than a regular Les Paul, but due to its clean specifications, it has many professional users and boasts unique popularity.

This time, we have an 1988 Les Paul Junior in cherry color.Weight approximately 3.8kg.

One dog-ear type "P-90" pickup is mounted at the rear directly to the flat mahogany body.It features a powerful and trebly sound character, making it especially suitable for chord strokes in the rock genre.

It has extremely simple controls with only one volume and tone knob, and is lightweight and easy to use, making it a popular model for guitar vocalists.This weight is 3.8kg, which is a little heavy for a junior.

Normal Junior models use a bar bridge, but this one uses a Tune-O-Matic bridge and a stop tailpiece, making it possible to adjust the octave tuning.

The bridge has been replaced by Montreux's ABR-1 at our store, but parts such as pegs, PU, ​​and pots remain original.

In addition, the attached hard case is a resin molded protector case for Les Paul, commonly known as the "rocket case" or "chainsaw case" that was released in the 1970s.The one from the 1980s has a blue inner layer and is also very valuable.

A chance to get your hands on an 80's Gibson, which is rising in price!
