Gibson Custom 1958 Les Paul Junior Double Cut Reissue VOS, TV Yellow Overview

​The Gibson Custom 1958 Les Paul Junior Double Cut Reissue VOS in TV Yellow is a meticulous recreation of the iconic 1958 model, celebrated for its straightforward design and powerful tonal output. Originally crafted for students and emerging artists, the Les Paul Junior quickly gained acclaim among seasoned musicians for its raw sound and minimalist aesthetic.​

This reissue features a solid one-piece mahogany body, finished in a Vintage Original Spec (VOS) nitrocellulose lacquer that imparts a gently aged appearance, enhancing its vintage charm. The TV Yellow hue not only pays homage to the original but also allows the natural grain of the mahogany to subtly emerge, adding depth to its visual appeal.​

The neck is constructed from solid mahogany and boasts a chunky C-shaped profile, providing a substantial yet comfortable grip reminiscent of late '50s Gibsons. The Indian rosewood fingerboard, attached using traditional hide glue, features a 12-inch radius and authentic medium-jumbo frets, facilitating smooth playability across its 24.75-inch scale length.​

Central to the Junior’s distinctive sound is the custom dog-ear P-90 pickup in the bridge position. This single-coil pickup delivers a robust, articulate tone with a pronounced midrange, making it versatile across genres from blues to rock. The electronics include CTS 500K audio taper potentiometers and paper-in-oil capacitors, ensuring precise control over volume and tone dynamics.

The guitar’s hardware is finished in nickel, featuring a wraparound bridge that contributes to its resonant sustain and straightforward intonation adjustment. A single-ply tortoiseshell celluloid pickguard complements the TV Yellow finish, adding a touch of classic elegance. Other period-accurate details include gold top hat control knobs, a black single-ply truss rod cover, and black dog-ear pickup covers.​

Each instrument is accompanied by a Custom Shop hardshell case and a certificate of authenticity, underscoring its craftsmanship and heritage. The Gibson Custom 1958 Les Paul Junior Double Cut Reissue VOS in TV Yellow stands as a testament to Gibson’s commitment to preserving the legacy of their timeless designs while delivering an instrument that meets the demands of contemporary players.
