Gibson Custom Les Paul Jr. TV Yellow - USA 2020

The 2020 Gibson Custom '57 Les Paul Junior Reissue in TV Yellow is a faithful reproduction of one of the most iconic and revered guitars in history. Originally released in 1954, the Les Paul Junior was part of Gibson's effort to provide a more affordable alternative to the Les Paul Standard, but it quickly became beloved for its simplicity, playability, and raw tone. The model's single P-90 pickup, lightweight solid mahogany body, and straightforward controls made it an instant favourite for rock, blues, and punk players alike. The 2020 reissue is built to the exact specifications of the original, offering vintage-inspired tones and a classic look that is perfect for players and collectors.

This particular 2020 reissue is finished in the classic TV Yellow, a distinctive and iconic colour that has become synonymous with the Les Paul Junior. The guitar features a lightweight mahogany body and a solid mahogany neck with a comfortable '50s-style neck profile. The single P-90 pickup delivers a punchy, midrange-heavy sound that’s both aggressive and warm, with excellent clarity and bite. The traditional controls—one volume and one tone knob—keep things simple and direct, allowing players to easily dial in a wide range of tones. The Custom Shop craftsmanship ensures a high level of attention to detail, making this reissue an exceptional example of the Les Paul Junior.

In excellent condition, this 2020 Gibson Custom '57 Les Paul Junior has been well looked after, showing minimal signs of use. The TV Yellow finish remains vibrant, and the guitar plays smoothly, retaining the character and warmth associated with the vintage models. With its outstanding playability and timeless appeal, this reissue is an ideal choice for both collectors looking for a near-perfect replica of the original and players seeking that classic Junior tone.
