Sitting down with this MM, you're rewarded with all of the great resonance and sustain that made LP Juniors so heralded. You've got all of that energy here, but in an even lighter, slimmer package. The neck is truly superb - a great '59 profile with slightly softer shoulders and a moderate taper that reminds us a lot of the great necks on those other Gibsons we love.

The original single coil MM pickup is bright and clear, almost tele-like in its voice. What it lacks in output compared to a P90 it makes up for in top end chime that works beautifully in a band mix or in a recording with multiple guitars. It's a total blast to play and offers one of the most comfortable playing experiences of any vintage solidbody electric.
