Gibson Les Paul Junior Tribute, Aged Cherry, (Used)

The Gibson Les Paul Junior Tribute in Aged Cherry is a single-cutaway solid-body electric guitar built around a mahogany body finished in a worn-in Aged Cherry gloss that highlights the wood’s natural grain. Its bolt-on or set mahogany neck (depending on year) is paired with a rosewood fingerboard that features 22 medium frets and dot inlays, giving a straightforward feel that suits both rhythm and lead playing. The scale length is 24.75", and the neck profile is designed for comfortable playability with a classic Gibson feel.

This model’s electronics are centred around a single dog-ear P-90 pickup in the bridge position, wired through a simple control layout of one volume and one tone knob. The P-90 delivers punchy mids, crisp highs, and a raw, articulate response that is characteristic of Les Paul Junior designs, making it suitable for gritty rock tones, bluesy drive, and straightforward rock rhythm work. The minimalist electronics and solid wood construction give the guitar a direct connection between player and tone.

Hardware includes a wraparound bridge that combines the functions of bridge and tailpiece for straightforward string anchoring, strong sustain, and easy setup. Chrome-finished tuning machines help maintain stable tuning, and the headstock carries the classic Gibson logo with simple binding around the body that complements the vintage-inspired Aged Cherry finish. The overall approach of the Les Paul Junior Tribute emphasises simplicity, playability, and raw musical expression.
