This 1960 Gibson Les Paul Jr. pairs a lightweight mahogany body with a comfortable slim oval neck, landing right in the period when Gibson had fully transitioned the model into its double-cutaway form. Finished in Cherry, it carries the lean, direct feel that made these guitars a fixture in rock, blues, and garage recordings through the decades. The original P-90 delivers the punchy midrange and sharp attack that players continue to chase in vintage Juniors.
The neck has a fast, compact feel without getting too thin. Original Kluson “3 on a strip” tuners, original electronics, and untouched solder joints remain intact, with CentraLab pots dating to the 27th week of 1960. This example is in excellent condition overall with no repairs or modifications to note, retaining a clean, well-preserved look throughout.
Includes ’70s hardshell case.
