1956 Gibson Les Paul Junior – Sunburst

We present an original 1956 Gibson Les Paul Junior in its original Sunburst finish. Made in Kalamazoo, Michigan.

History

This incredible ’56 Les Paul Junior is coming directly from the widow of the original owner. The original owner bought the guitar back in 1956 along with a ’56 Magnatone Varsity Deluxe Model 108 amp. The amp is included with the guitar as a set, as we couldn’t possibly separate the two after so many years.

Condition

This vintage Gibson is in exceptional clean condition / near mint. Truly a needle in a haystack to find them in this good condition. There are minor nicks, dings and scratches and other cosmetic wear. The original 1-piece mahogany body is lightweight and features a 1-piece mahogany neck with a beautiful dark rosewood fretboard with dot inlays. The original sunburst finish is stunning and haven’t faded much over the years. The original frets and nut are in good shape with a lot of life left.

Originality

This exceptional ’56 Les Paul Junior is all original except for new tuner buttons, since the original buttons crumbled which is totally common. It is still the original tuners, just new buttons. Otherwise it’s completely like it left the Kalamazoo factory back in ’56. The original P-90 sounds fantastic and are complete untouched. Features the original aluminium lightweight wrab-around tailpiece and original gold knobs.

Pickup and the electronics/wiring remains untouched and intact, with no broken solder joints, no re-wound pickup. All original and correct.
