Gibson Custom Shop 1958 Les Paul Junior Double Cutaway Reissue - Faded Cherry - LPJRDC58VFCNH
1958 was a monumental year for Gibson in which a whole new lineup of now famous models were introduced. One of them was the redesigned "double cutaway" Les Paul Junior, which has since found its place in music history as a favourite of hard rock musicians.The extra fret access of the double-cut construction allows upper octave leads while the "simple is better" single-pickup setup projects only thick, heavy tone. Gibson Custom Shop has proudly revived the original recipe from 1958 for this Historic Reissue, from the solid mahogany and hide glue construction to the vintage-style wiring. It is an accurate and faithful replica in every possible way.

The Nantel Verdict
The Nantel Verdict
Hand-selected mahogany body with carved maple top for the iconic Les Paul tonal balance. PAF-inspired humbuckers delivering thick, warm, endlessly sustaining tone. Set-neck construction for enhanced resonance and sustain. Nitrocellulose lacquer finish that lets the wood breathe and mature.
Keep the neck pickup volume at 7 with the bridge at full, then switch to the middle position - you'll discover a shimmering clarity and chime that most Les Paul players never explore. It's like finding a hidden third voice.
A Gibson Les Paul is rock history in your hands. From Slash's searing 'November Rain' solo to Joe Bonamassa's devastating blues tone, this guitar has defined what electric guitar should sound like for generations. The combination of mahogany warmth, maple brightness, and humbucker power creates a voice that's instantly recognizable and endlessly inspiring. Once you play a well-set-up Les Paul, nothing else quite scratches the same itch.
