  • Description: A Near Mint 1959 'Double-Cut' Les Paul Junior. This super light guitar weighs just 7.00 lbs. Solid mahogany body with rounded edges, one-piece mahogany neck with that great '59 "baseball bat" style profile, and Brazilian rosewood fretboard with 22 original jumbo frets and inlaid pearl dot position markers. Headstock with "Gibson" logo and "Les Paul / Junior" silk-screened in gold. The body and neck are a rich cherry color with no fading and no finish checking… Otherwise this incredible fifty-three year old 'under-the-bed' guitar is in totally mint as new condition. The original 'jumbo' frets show just a miniscule amount of playing wear, the fretboard shows no wear. One of the best looking and best sounding 'Double-Cut' Les Paul Juniors that we have ever handled. Housed in the original Gibson brown 'Aligator' softshell case with brown felt lining (8.50). (01387)
