Born as a stripped-down and affordable version in 1960, the Les Paul Junior Double Cut established itself on punk, rock, and indie stages thanks to its simplicity and immediate character. This Custom Shop reissue respects the original DNA (solid mahogany slab body, wraparound bridge, single pickup) while benefiting from Murphy Lab?s expertise for a credible patina, like a Junior that has been played for decades.
Perfect for intermediate to advanced guitarists seeking a direct, expressive, and robust instrument. It excels in rock, punk, garage, gritty blues, and indie. Its 1 volume / 1 tone circuit allows you to move from gritty crunch to airy cleans simply by adjusting the knob and right-hand attack, without getting lost in settings.
The solid mahogany body combined with the wraparound bridge delivers dense mids, precise attack, and clear sustain. The P-90 Dogear in the bridge position offers that characteristic bite, rich in harmonics, with excellent ?cleanup? at lower volume. The CTS 500K potentiometers and Paper-in-Oil capacitors provide openness and musicality: clarity on clean tones, controlled roughness on overdrive, and great sensitivity to playing nuances.
- Nickel steel electric guitar strings 10-46 (versatile, maintains the tension and tone of the P-90).
- High-quality 6.35 mm jack cable (straight on amp side, right-angle on guitar side if preferred).
- Durable leather or nylon strap with reinforced ends.
- Capo designed for electric guitar and microfiber cloth for finish and Indian rosewood fingerboard maintenance.
