Simply amazing. The Gibson Custom Shop represents the height of craftsmanship, quality, and tonal excellence. Every instrument is a tribute to Gibson’s legacy, crafted with accuracy, authenticity, and an unwavering attention to detail.

In the guitar world, being "ruined" means playing something so exceptional that it forever changes your standard—and no guitar embodies this more than the Les Paul Junior. Originally introduced in the 1950s as a student or budget model, it was designed to be as straightforward as a set-neck electric guitar could be. However, over time, professional musicians were drawn to the Junior's raw tonal purity and minimalist design.

The Gibson Custom Shop has faithfully recreated this iconic guitar with its Historic Reissue. From the solid mahogany body and hide glue construction to the vintage-style wiring, the Les Paul Junior is back, ready to deliver the same sonic power that has captivated guitarists for decades. Be prepared to be "ruined" by its simplicity and brilliance.
