    The gritty tone & feel of the Junior is just amazing. I tune mine down to Eb Standard and it not only plays like butter, that rich warm tone is even richer and warmer.

    I love my junior. I find myself able to play anything on it. Volume at 7 tone at 4 is a beautiful clean almost neck vibe. 8 and 8 is great for acoustic vibe chords. And then volume at 10 is just gritty madness great with tone or without it. I dont reach for any other guitars just my LP junior.

    Good video. I'm totally on the LP jr train. Most basic new production I think Gibson makes. It's become my fav as there's so many tonal varieties with 2 knobs. And the growl. Now to get my hands on a vintage one💸💸💸

    Single bridge PU guitars are great with flatwounds, too - rolling the tone off and playing closer (if not over) the neck with flatwounds makes for a nice alternative to a typical neck PU tone.

    A couple weeks ago I picked up a 2004 Gibson Melody Maker. Very similar to the Jr but without a pick guard and for 2003-2004 Gibson decided to be overly nice (at the price range) and put in a tune-o-matic bridge. I'm sold on the Melody Makers and Les Paul Jrs. I've never felt more like "oh shit, this is MY guitar." Just a chunk of wood with a drilled in P90... That plus a responsive tube amp and maybe a few pedals. DONE. It's great.

    I agree! ALL Gibson guitars give (especially new) players the opportunity to improve their ear training.

    I found a ( Baldwin ) Maestro Les Paul Jr. by Gibson ( with a Gibson headstock ) in a thrift shop $100 . Reamed the holes , installed Hip Shot locking tuners $ 85 , Tusq nut $12 , ToneRider Rebel 90 ( Humbucker sized P90 ) $50 , new volume/tone pots and caps $35 . Fender Pro Jr. IV tweed new amp $600 . Totaling $875ish And with the rest of the $ 5,400 left over , I payed 6 months principal on my mortgage 🤣 . Nice Murphy Lab TV Yellow indeed , but my Maestro rocks 👍.

      That's how I like to do it as well. Get a cheap junior/special and upgrade and mod the hell out of it. It's more fun that way.
      Nice score and upgrades on the Maestro!

      Just recently got that same maestro in that beautiful off white color for $20 on fb marketplace and I cleaned it up gave it a decent set up, but I think I need to replace the bridge perhaps, it doesn’t intonate very well, but feels comfortable and sounds way better than I expected. How’s the humbucker sized p90 sound

    Thats the 1st time ive heard that amp sound good

  • @aj81ds
    @aj81ds 3 місяці тому

    That Falcon 20 sounded good for the Green Day tone you played. Did you use any pedals or is that just
    the amp?

    i just don't believe one can hear a difference in the bridge pick up if there is also a neck pick up not in use. single pup looks cooler though

    If i could afford to get any more guitars, i would get one, but I'd have it made for me, and not by a Gibson!

      I have this same junior guitar and the double cut version. They are worth every dollar.
