Gibson Custom Les Paul Junior DC TV Yellow Original

A Double Cut Junior: Vintage DNA in Its Most Direct Form

Introduced in the late 1950s, the Les Paul Junior established itself far beyond its initial positioning: a deliberately simple guitar designed to get straight to the point. The Double Cutaway version maintains this philosophy (one pickup, two controls) while adding a real ergonomic advantage thanks to the double cutaway. The TV Yellow finish completes the picture with an instantly recognizable vintage-style look, made for those who love instruments with character.

Who Is This Les Paul Junior Double Cut For?

This guitar is especially aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists who want an expressive instrument without unnecessary complexity. It excels in rock, blues, garage, and punk, with a very direct response that highlights touch and attack. The volume/tone duo also allows exploration of softer and more nuanced sounds by simply adjusting the right hand and controls, making it an excellent guitar for both stage and rehearsal.

The Sound

The Dogear P-90 in the bridge position delivers a raw and articulate tone: plenty of presence in the mids, a sharp attack, and rich harmonics, ideal for bringing out both chordal playing and riffs. The combination of solid mahogany and a 24.75" / 628 mm scale length provides warmth, roundness, and natural sustain, while the wraparound bridge enhances vibration transfer to the body for a fuller sound with punch. The hand-wired circuitry and Orange Drop capacitor offer a usable tone throughout the control range, allowing you to go from biting and incisive to darker colors without losing definition.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

The guitar comes with a Gibson hard case, so you are already perfectly equipped for transport. To complete a stage-oriented setup, a sturdy strap (leather or nylon) and a quality 6.35 mm jack cable are simple and relevant choices to secure the instrument and preserve all the dynamics of the P-90.
