Left Handed Versions Available
Many of Gibson's USA guitars are available in left-handed configurations. If you're a southpaw who's always dreamed of owning a US-made Gibson, please contact us with any enquiries.
If you’re looking for a pure rock 'n' roll machine, the Gibson USA Les Paul Junior Tribute DC is a contender that you should strongly consider! With its distinctive doublecut body shape and a punchy P90 bridge pickup, this instrument is as stylish as it is potent-sounding.
Construction
The Les Paul Junior Tribute DC is comprised of a Mahogany body and a Maple neck. The rich-sounding Mahogany serves as a fantastic tonal foundation for the powerful P90, delivering a strong mid-range and a focused low-end. With no weight-relief whatsoever, this type of construction will surely appeal to the traditionalists.
The DC’s set Maple neck offers some vibrant top-end sizzle, ensuring that notes and chords will have plenty of bite and a fast, snappy response. Adorned with a silky smooth Rosewood fingerboard, you can effortlessly glide up and down the neck, especially with the modern Slim Taper neck profile.
Electronics & Hardware
The Gibson USA Les Paul Junior Tribute DC features a single P90 in the bridge, but it’s more versatile than you might think. Although punk players will adore its aggressive sound, this Gibson-designed P90 is actually incredibly dynamic, reacting very well to the volume and tone controls.
The reliable Compensated Wraparound bridge offers a solid and smooth feel under the right hand when palm-muting, with no jagged saddles digging into your picking hand. Gibson has ensured that this guitar projects an old-school vibe, which is why they've fitted the Les Paul Junior Tribute DC with a set of their Vintage Deluxe tuners. Featuring understated white buttons, these tuners have a stable feel with a steady rotation, meaning that you can precisely tune each string.
