Gibson / Les Paul Junior / 1959 / Cherry / Guitar

Here is a cool opportunity to own a piece of old wood from Gibson’s golden era without breaking the bank or buying a refin. Here we have an original 1959 Gibson Les Paul Junior Double Cutaway in the original cherry finish. This example features the original pickup route, no neck breaks or repairs, and mostly original parts. Although it showcases a decent amount of wear and tear it is a solid instrument and currently plays and sounds absolutely fantastic. The original Central Lab pots date to 1959 (1345943) and the neck features a nice and fat ’59 profile. The original pickup has a new lead and is a hefty 8.90K. The frets are in surprisingly good shape so it is questionable if they are original. They are the same style fret wire used on late 50s Juniors. Overall a great player! Comes with a non original hardshell case.

Year: 1959.

Model: Les Paul Junior

Serial: 933950.

Finish: Original cherry.

Case: Non original hardshell case.

Weight: 7 pounds 10 ounces.

Condition: Overall in very good but worn condition. No neck breaks or repairs. Small crack area located between the two knobs. Appears to have been repaired long ago and is completely stable. Otherwise in good shape.

Modifications: Tuners replaced with Grovers, Pickup lead replaced, bridge replaced with lightweight 60s wrap-around (original studs), input jack and cover replaced, possible refret, otherwise original.

Comments: Player grade 59 Les Paul Junior.
