1954 Gibson Les Paul Junior – Sunburst

Well Strung Guitars

Description

Who doesn’t love a first-year 1954 Gibson Les Paul Junior in its original Sunburst finish!? This particular Junior has a nice touch of personalization from the original owner on the pickguard in the form of waterslide decals spelling out the name “Suzanne.” This could be the original owner’s name or perhaps a nickname of the guitar, but we cannot be sure because there was no receipt saved. Features include a rare maple body, one single P-90 pickup, and accompanying volume and tone knobs. It’s incredible what one P-90 and old wood can sound and feel like!
