Gibson Les Paul Junior Tribute DC 2019 Electric Guitar Worn Brown

i sat down with a 2-pickup junior DC, a les Paul special with p-90s and this thing. This was the clear winner. It was the lightest and had the best sustain by a wide margin. It was also the brightest of the three. Keep in mind the one I got has a three piece body, while the 2-pickup and special both had noticeably heavier 2-piece bodies. Some might complain about the pickguard mounting, cheesy neck joint job and multi-piece body, but the proof is in the playing. This thing plays and sounds first class. Also of note is the quality of the electronics. Gibson USA p-90 hand-wired to CTS pots and a Switchcraft jack. What more could you want? Wires are all just the right length and heat-shrinked where it needs it. Tone cap is kinda meh, but that's an easy fix. Great guitar, but I could see it varying from unit-to-unit. Get one and use Guitar Center return policy if it's a dud.

Absolutely love this guitar. Picked it up because I wanted a lower cost Gibson that I could use to practice and not worry about abuse while taking it with me while traveling. Since I have received it, this has become my primary guitar. It has a great tone and a nice quick neck. For only having one pickup, it has excellent tone versatility. I don't find my self wanting for anything when I play it. It is simply a great rock guitar. So fun to play!

This guitar is a must have. As a teenager, I had a 1962 Gibson SG Jr. that had a very similar feel and sound. The neck is fast and the tone is great. In addition, this guitar has good tuning stability and intonation. I did swap out the button tuners for a set of Vintage Grover Deluxe tuners. The button tuners have a short shaft with the hole located close to the bottom. Just buy this guitar and rock, it's a keeper.

This is a solid guitar. The fret work is good, I like the weight. I love the P90 tone and bite. The necl feels great, and the pots have great volume and tone sweep. If you absolutely must have an American made Gibson guitar on a budget this is your best bet. If you want the best tone and playability for the buck I'm not quite sold that this would be my number one choice. Buy used if you can and you won't go wrong.

Fun to play, practice with, and in this priceline for a Nashville Gibson, you cannot go wrong. This is my first experience with a P-90, and I was a little hesitant at first, but after getting her home and running through a few songs, I knew I'd made a great choice. My one quip is that it doesn't come with a hard shell case, but that's my only issue. Great quality. Great sound. Great guitar.

A really nice surprise from the 2019 Gibson line-up. Ordered mine in ebony...looks great. Dark, but not so much that it hides the wood grain. Satin finish is great...very well done. Neck feels great...not a big fan of the slim-taper...I prefer a chunky profile, but this guitar feels wonderful: fret ends filed down, no sharp ends, nut looks great, no binding, slots aren't too deep. I like the fact that all electronics are front loaded...I know it's not very "traditional" or historically correct, but I think it looks fine and retains a "retro" look. It's also nice to have the option to swap electronics without having to solder by using a pre-wired harness and pickup. While it played great out-of-the-box, I did have to fine tune the neck and drop the bridge a bit to suit my personal taste: now I can't put it down. The P90 is wonderful...from chimes to screams...coloring your tone isn't an issue when you start playing with the volume and tone controls. This is a great guitar at the below $1K price-point...so glad I picked one up.
