1956 Gibson Les Paul Junior Sunburst
We're pleased to present this 1956 Gibson Les Paul Junior in original sunburst. Notable for changes made in early 1956, this model has longer tailpiece post inserts to prevent leaning and a slightly repositioned pickup to add strength between the bridge and pickup route.
Measurements: 7.6 lbs / 3.45 kg total weight. The neck measures 1.72" (43.6mm) wide at the nut, 0.94" deep at the first fret, and 1.03" deep at the 12th fret. The pickup measures 8.42k ohms.
Originality: All parts, finish, and solder are original to this guitar other than the tuner buttons. This guitar does not come with the original case so we have outsourced a new hardshell case.
Playability: Excellent. The neck is dead straight, truss rod functions as intended, frets have very little wear, and the electronics are clean and operate as intended.
Condition: Incredible with typical nicks, dings, and scratches.
Fine Print: All guitars ship via FedEx Priority Overnight for domestic sales or FedEx Priority International. I offer a 48 hour approval period beginning on delivery for all sales during which you are welcome to opt for a return as long as the guitar is still in as-sent condition. I do not charge a restocking fee, but any non-refunded payment processing fees, outbound shipping, and return shipping costs are subtracted from the refund in the case of a return.

Fender Stratocasters: Better with a Hardtail?
There is something different about a Fender Stratocaster that's been lovingly played and cherished for half a century. My favorite Stratocaster we've been fortunate enough to have in the shop this year, and frankly one of my favorite guitars of all time was a 1960 Fender Stratocaster in sunburst. Sounds boring right? Well, this Strat has a trick up its sleeve. It left the factory with a "Hardtail" configuration.
