I'm pleased to introduce you "Coffee", an original vintage 1957 Gibson Les Paul Junior with terrific tone. I hope you enjoy!

I own a 1957 Les Paul Junior TV model serial number 7 1147 versus your 7 1247 serial number. The guitar I own has a great story behind it. I purchased it from an 81 year old lady who purchased it in 1961-1962 to take lessons but never did. The guitar sat in a spare room since the early 60's. It is in almost new condition. I plan to share the whole story on the forum at some point. I have been putting it off as I have not figured out how to get the pics of it to appear on the Les Paul Forum.

Thank you Ferdie! Nice story indeed and lucky to have such a treasure... right 100 numbers apart! Unfortunately I no longer have "Coffee" as I made the tough decision to sell it to fund a vintage Special. If you liked the video please feel free to subscribe my channel for more! : )

1957 Jr's are badass machines, as demonstrated above.

Big round necks, for those who like something to hang on to.

Strong pickups with huge response from the low E string.
