Gibson Custom Shop Murphy Lab 1957 Les Paul Junior TV Yellow Ultra Light Aged
Serial Number: 742004
Weight: 8.0 lbs.

Originally introduced in the 1950s as a student model, the Les Paul Junior quickly found favor with professional players who recognized its sonic purity and stripped-down simplicity. The Gibson Custom Shop has faithfully recreated this classic with solid mahogany construction, hide glue assembly, and vintage-style wiring, preserving the raw, resonant tone that made it legendary.

Finished in Murphy Lab Ultra Light Aging, this reissue looks and feels like a well-loved original, with lightly aged hardware and subtle play wear that captures the vibe of a true Golden Era Gibson. Simple, powerful, and undeniably inspiring, the Les Paul Junior Reissue is ready to school you—in the best way possible.
