Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Les Paul Junior Double Cut Electric Guitar in Ebony

The Epiphone Les Paul Junior Double Cut in Ebony takes the iconic student model and turns it into a no-nonsense rock machine with bags of vintage character. With its slab mahogany body, 50s-style neck and a single Epiphone P-90 PRO Dogear pickup, it delivers everything from snarling overdrive to sparkling cleans, all controlled from a simple yet expressive set of volume and tone controls. Finished in a sleek gloss Ebony and supplied with a premium gig bag, it is an inspiring, grab-and-go guitar for players of all levels.

Inspired by the classic late 50s double cut design, this Junior offers superb upper fret access, rock-solid tuning stability and impressive sustain thanks to its glued-in mahogany neck and Lightning Bar wraparound bridge. Whether you are a beginner looking for your first serious instrument or a seasoned player after a stripped-back workhorse, the Les Paul Junior Double Cut rewards every touch with dynamic, expressive tone.

Classic Double Cut Les Paul Junior Design

This model stays true to the spirit of the 1958 double cut Les Paul Junior, with a slab mahogany body and simple control layout that keeps you focused on playing. The double cutaway shape gives you effortless access to all 22 frets, making bends, solos and high-register chords feel natural and comfortable. Combined with the gloss Ebony finish, it has a timeless look that fits any stage.

50s Vintage Mahogany Neck

The glued-in mahogany neck features a 50s Vintage profile that fills the hand without feeling cumbersome, encouraging confident chord work and smooth lead playing. A rosewood fretboard with a 12 inch radius and 22 medium jumbo frets offers a familiar, modern playing surface, while pearloid dot inlays keep things visually classic and easy to navigate.

Expressive Epiphone P-90 PRO Dogear Pickup

At the heart of this guitar is a single Epiphone P-90 PRO Dogear pickup in the bridge position. Wide open, it delivers raw, punchy rock tones with plenty of midrange bite and presence. Roll the volume back and it cleans up beautifully, revealing chime, jangle and clarity for rhythm parts. Use the tone control to move from bright attack to warm, rounded jazzier sounds, all from one pickup and two knobs.

Rock Solid Hardware and Premium Electronics

The Lightning Bar compensated wraparound bridge anchors the strings directly into the body for enhanced sustain, resonance and tuning stability. Epiphone Deluxe tuners with ivory buttons and a Graph Tech nut keep your tuning secure while adding vintage flair. High quality CTS potentiometers ensure smooth, reliable control over your volume and tone, so every small adjustment translates clearly into your sound.
