Gibson Les Paul Junior 1957 Sunburst

Single cut vintage icon

This 1957 Les Paul Junior Sunburst is the kind of piece collectors look for. A true single cut Junior with the classic slab mahogany build and one dog ear P 90 that delivers the direct, mid rich voice that made these guitars legends.

Condition and originality notes

Our example is in very good condition and presents beautifully. The bridge has been upgraded for improved performance and stability, and the original bridge is included and stored safely in the case. The neck is straight, it plays excellent up and down the board, and it feels like a proper 50s Gibson in the hands.

Why players and collectors chase Juniors

A great Junior does not need extra pickups to cover ground. The single P 90 is expressive and responsive, with clear, touch sensitive cleans and a strong, gritty push when you lean into the amp. It records extremely well and holds its place in a mix without getting lost.

Included case

Serial #72798 comes with a Gibson Custom Shop Vintage Purple Interior case for serious protection in storage and transit.

If you want a real 1957 Junior with collector appeal, plus the confidence that it is stable and playable, this one checks the boxes.
