The LPJ's Streamlined Sibling

First introduced in 1958, the Gibson Les Paul Junior Double Cut began its legacy with humble origins as a student model guitar. However, like other Gibsons from that era, it went on to secure a stature and immense popularity among players and guitar enthusiasts alike. Perfect in its simplicity, this remarkable Les Paul Junior Double Cut reissue pays tribute to the model's traditional counterparts in both design and functionality while benefiting from a more streamlined and performance-oriented format. Its slim, lightweight mahogany body and equally commanding SlimTaper mahogany neck enable hours of comfortable play without back pain for a smooth and authentic fretting experience. True to the original Les Paul Junior Double Cuts of the era, it is equipped with a single Dogear P-90 pickup and an Orange Drop capacitor, providing a distinct and marvelously malleable sonic texture that will suit a range of genres with ease, from blues and garage rock to alternative and beyond. To complete the package, a traditional nitrocellulose finish gives the Les Paul Junior Double Cut a fresh factory lacquer that allows it to breathe and resonate naturally, aging beautifully over time — just like the storied instruments of the past.

Gibson's iconic Dogear P-90

Gibson has many fiercely loyal P-90 fans. These guitarists know that the P-90 offers a unique tonal palette that is distinct from — and complements — humbuckers and traditional single-coils. Gibson’s first successful single-coil pickup, the P-90, can be heard on countless classic recordings. With its biting treble and high output, the P-90 cleans up nicely when you roll back your guitar’s volume pot. It’s an amazingly versatile pickup with its own brand of grit — a bit brighter, leaner, and less refined than a humbucker and almost as hot.

Hit your amp hard, and this Gibson Dogear P-90 really wails. Plugged into a proper high-gain tube amp, you can elicit grind, sizzle, and bark that would be impossible with humbuckers — or with other single-coils, for that matter. To hear P-90s brilliantly deployed in a historical context, check out Santana’s fiery Woodstock performance or the Who’s masterful Live at Leeds album.

Sleek SlimTaper neck profile

Comfort and playability were two of Gibson’s primary concerns when they were designing the Les Paul Junior Double Cut. One of the model's most notable differences from its single-cut sibling, aside from its dual-horned silhouette, is its ultra-comfortable SlimTaper neck profile. This shape, in conjunction with its phenomenally accessible double-cutaway body style, prioritizes sleek playability for all who toss it over the shoulder. Additionally, a refined rosewood fingerboard is buffed to silky smoothness to let those ripping solos flow from your fingers effortlessly.

Nitro finish for the look and feel of a classic

Gibson gave the Les Paul Junior Double Cut a gorgeous nitrocellulose lacquer finish. Nitro finishes — standard back in the day — are significantly thinner than today’s polyurethane finishes, allowing the guitar to “breathe.” Nitro finishes not only look amazing, but they also enhance the instrument’s tonal qualities. The Les Paul Junior Double Cut has the look and feel of a lovingly cared-for classic — one that will only improve with age.
