DISC Gibson Les Paul Junior Special P-90, Satin Yellow

Full Description

The Junior Special is a single-cutaway, slab-bodied electric guitar and part of the Gibson Les Paul Junior family, which was introduced in 1954. The series has become known for its appeal to punk, blues, grunge and garage rockers, along with its impressive tonal depth and purity that can spread it across other genres as well. This Junior Special P-90 combines the attributes of Gibson's Junior and Special series in a two-pickup guitar. This versatile guitar boasts classic hardware and a nice Satin Yellow finish.

Quality Construction

The Junior Special P-90 pays respect to Gibson heritage and tradition whilst offering some well-calculated upgrades to benefit the modern player. Like the first Les Paul Junior, this guitar is made from solid mahogany, a wood which provides sonic depth and richness that pulses through every note, yet always remaining clear and articulate. The neck is made from quarter-sawn mahogany, carved to a fast yet comfortable profile that measures .800" at the 1st fret and .875" at the 12th. The fingerboard is made from rich brown baked maple, which is a heat-treated hardwood that provides incredible tone along with great durability. The guitar features a PLEK-cut Corian™ nut.

Recreational P-90 Pickups

The Les Paul Junior Special P-90 features accurate recreations of the well-known P-90 pickup as built in the 1950s. They're made with genuine Alnico V magnets, so expect smooth, punchy, articulate overdriven tones and fat lows, silky highs and a signature midrange kick that cuts through any mix. This guitar features a Tune-o-matic bridge with stopbar tailpiece, providing great sustain and resonance, with vintage-style pearloid-button tuners.

Bag Included

Included with this guitar is a padded Gibson gigbag, with an owner's manual.
