Selling my double cut TV LP special in near mint condition. It is a great one but too clean for me to play out. No breaks or repairs, no extra holes or mods, no post lean, no checking, just clean! clean ! clean. All original, with the faux Alligator case as shown. I Will ship the guitar in a proper HSC expedited Fedex and the faux gator case will be boxed and ship separately via ground. The guitar Weighs 7.34 pounds. The P90 is strong, the neck profile is 59, the frets are original and plays like new, and sounds as great as it looks. The pictures are part of the description. Note, some of the pix show the guitar with a Music City wrap around bridge which I prefer while I get to plat it at home, the original bridge is in the case. This instrument was Purchased from Rick at Garrett Park Guitars in Maryland, a reputable dealer. Check my feedback, I am a real private seller with a good reputation (see feedback). Bank wire only so contact me before checking out. Thanks for looking.
The 1959 Gibson Les Paul Junior in TV Yellow is a highly sought-after vintage electric guitar, originally introduced as a student model but later revered for its "raw, unfiltered tone". In 1959, this model was primarily produced with a double-cutaway mahogany body, and Brazilian fretboard.

Key Specifications

The 1959 model is distinguished by several specific hardware and design elements that contribute to its "rock n' roll" reputation. 

  • Pickups: Equipped with a single "dogear" P-90 pickup, known for producing a biting, articulate sound that ranges from warm cleans to crunchy overdrive.
  • Body & Neck: Features a solid mahogany body and a mahogany neck with a 1959 profile Neck.
  • Fretboard: A 22-fret rosewood fingerboard with a 12” radius and dot markers.
  • Hardware: A simple wraparound bridge that anchors directly to the body for improved sustain and nickel-finished hardware.
  • Finish: The "TV Yellow" finish was originally intended to look white on black-and-white television screens without glaring. Very rare.
