Product Description

The Gibson Les Paul Junior Special Electric Guitar has a simplicity that appeals to punk, blues, grunge and garage rockers, yet a tonal depth that attracts the hands of refined players. Made from solid mahogany, the Les Paul Junior Special has a sonic depth and richness that remains clear and articulate. The guitar's neck is made from quarter-sawn Grade C mahogany, carved to the fast, yet comfortable SlimTaper profile, with a bound fingerboard. Gibson USA packs in a classic set of Tune-o-matic bridge with stopbar tailpiece, along with vintage-style, white-button tuners.

For all the meat and muscle you'll ever want to muster, the Les Paul Junior Special P-90 carries a dual set of P-90 Soap bars. This single-coil pickup offers punchy yet slightly raw mids, but with smooth, slightly silky highs. All of this is packaged in an edgy, slightly gritty voice that countless players find entirely addictive.

4 out of 5 (4 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. " Gibson Les Paul Junior Special P90 "
Overall: Ordered this guitar from ZZounds on Wednesday night, received it Friday AM! The guitar was poorly packed(by Gibson) and after unboxing found two small dents in the top edge. It was shipped in a gig bag but not secured in the box so the damage could have been during shipping. Otherwise the guitar was fine. I called ZZounds- they immediately emailed a return shipping label and sent a replacement as soon as I got it in the mail. The replacement was damaged in exactly the same area. This one looked like it had been placed in the gig bag before the paint was completely dry. I gave up and returned this one as well. This is a nice guitar and I would recommend it if you have the patience to wait for a good one. The p90's are awesome! ZZounds's customer service is outstanding but Gibson's quality control is dismal. Buy one hands-on or switch to a different brand.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Excellent value for the money compared to the custom shop Junior"
Overall: I don't comprehend the way Gibson does things sometimes but it seems with their Studio, Junior and Special lines that all range in the $750.00 to $1000.00 price bracket, they make an excellent product. The instruments that I have received from these lines exceed their much more expensive counterparts from the vaunted Custom Historic Division. The resonance and tone of this guitar is absolutely amazing. The parts used are top notch. The "chrome white button tuners" are actual Klusons, not the Gibson Deluxe tuners which eventually break down and are difficult to replace one at a time. The baked maple fretboard is very nicely done and a good alternative to rosewood. Trust me, I would have preferred rosewood but after the unnecessary raid that was conducted on Gibson, it turns out that these baked maple fretboards are a pretty good alternative to the lost product as a result of executive branch overreaching. Bottom line, this guitar is worth every penny. Mine is the gloss yellow finished model and I am as happy as I can be with it. I have been playing for twenty years and without getting into the long story of my professional experience, suffice to say that I know quality when I see it and I found absolutely nothing wrong with this instrument. It rings, it plays like butter and it can handle any type of music one would want to play with it. A true classic, get one before Gibson stops making them again.

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!

To submit a request for a lower price, click "Seen it for less?" on any product page. We answer most lowest price requests within two hours. For extra peace of mind, you also have 30 days after your purchase to find a lower price; if you do, we'll refund the difference.

zZounds customer service is consistently rated at or near the top on every major comparison shopping website--probably because we only hire experienced musicians with outstanding customer service skills to work in our call center, and they don't work on commission. To us, this is our most meaningful measure of success. zZounds has served over a million customers since 1996, and they're the only critics whose reviews really matter to us.
