Gibson Les Paul Junior Special with Humbuckers Electric Guitar Satin Cherry

When I first purchased this guitar, I always prefaced telling people about it saying "It doesn't look nice, but it rocks." Well, I've changed my mind since. It does look nice in its simplicity. In fact, I prefer it. Because of the low price (relatively speaking..), I have no problem keeping it out in the open where I can pick it up and practice whenever I can. This guitar rocks hard, like its big brother Les Pauls. I absolutely love mine. It feels nice in the hand, and paired with a quality amp, it is dynamite. The sound is one of quality, and you can tell that the woods and construction render a beautiful tone. I did change the pickups to taste because I prefer more of a smooth lead tone as opposed to the wall of crunch. To me, pickups are the one part of any guitar subject to change to personal preference.

My bro-in-law bought a P90 version Jr Sp in tobacco sunburst satin and I couldn't believe how nice it was and the playability not to mention tone. I just had to have one but I wanted a gloss black finish with humbuckers. Wow what a fantastic guitar! The fit and finish were excellent. I bought chrome covers for the buckers and man does it look sweet! The sustain on it is awesome. Plays like a dream. Comes with 10 guage strings which has become my favorite gauge. The deal I got on it was amazing for an American made Gibson Les Paul. Nice, nice guitar!

I recently purchased the Les Paul Junior Special with humbuckers. It plays great and stays in tune very well. It's a no thrills Les Paul but that's what I was looking for. A lot of the punk bands from the 70s that I like used a Les Paul Special so that what I wanted for playing. They didn't have the 2 humbuckers but it sounds great nonetheless. Totally happy with the purchase. Even though the ebony version I bought didn't come with a pick guard as shown in the picture on GC website. Makes it all the more special I guess. Great buy and you won't be disappointed.

Went to GC looking for a Les Paul. Really wanted one with P-90's but played about 15 different types of Les Paul's. I actually only picked up the Satin Black Special because it was on sale. I expected it to play like a guitar in that price range. Boy was I surprised. The feel of the neck and the buttery smooth baked maple finger board had me hooked instantly. I immediately started putting the quiver of Les Paul's I had around me back on the wall. This guitar played better and sounded better than ones costing upward of $2k. Needless to say the Special and I went home together.

Bought this guitar 4 weeks ago. The tone, the looks (satin cherry) and the feel are incredible. Had to adjust the intonation but is perfect now. I am so impressed with the tonal quality and sustain. You can hear the guitar go through several tonal sounds while holding a note. The price is fantastic. Would pay several hundred dollars more but am happy with what I paid. I would recommend this guitar to anyone from beginner to pro.

I recently purchased the Les Paul Junior Special with Humbuckings and satin yellow finish. I currently own a 77 Les Paul Standard but was looking for a lighter Les Paul that I could gig with. I purchased this guitar on line from Guitar Center, it arrived quickly and was well packaged. The guitar has a nice playing neck with no fret buzz and the pickups sound great. It does not have the gloss finish of a Les Paul Standard but for the price you can't beat it. The only adjustmnents needed were a minor string height change and re-setting the intonation. I have played this guitar out and am pleased with the sound and how it plays.
