Gibson Custom Shop 1958 Les Paul Junior Double Cut Reissue Cherry Red with Case
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 were 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. 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.
The 50's rounded neck profile is chunky yet super comfortable and easy to play. The 12" radius and medium jumbo frets make bending a breeze. Whether ripping leads or keeping it down with steady rhythm playing, this guitar suits the situation. The P90 pickup is a single coil that brings big tone to the table - there's a reason so many players gravitate to this simple and secure way of sounding great.
This guitar has a clear goal: to bring you the authentic feel, sound, and vibe of a true '58 Les Paul Junior. The high-quality mahogany slab body keeps the iconic Les Paul shape intact, the bridge and tailpiece combo is now a common feature on many high-end models, and a single pickup brings you pure classic tone. Some people believe that sometimes, less is more - and when it comes to a guitar like this, we definitely agree. It's a prime example of an instrument designed with a purpose, and it truly takes you back in time!
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.
