A Straightforward Rock Guitar

The Epiphone Les Paul Junior solidbody electric guitar packs everything you need to rock, with nothing else to get in your way. When you're more focused on your music than your gear, a single pickup is all you need. And when that pickup is the P-90 Pro single-coil pickup, your amplifier is in for a treat. With just volume and tone controls you can make the Les Paul Junior sing, bark, and scream at your whim. At one end you have a premium Graph Tech nut to enhance your tone and tuning stability. At the other end, you've got premium CTS electronics to maintain your sonic integrity. Spend some time getting to know the Epiphone Les Paul Junior, and we're sure you'll be impressed.

Iconic tone from a single P-90 Pro pickup

The P-90 Pro single-coil pickup in the Epiphone Les Paul Junior is designed with many of the features of the original P-90 pickups created by Seth Lover in the '50s. It's a sensitive pickup that responds amazingly well to the nuances of your picking. Dig in and it starts to growl with a vocal-like quality. Played cleanly, the sound is rich and sparkling. If you love the articulation of single-coil pickups, but want a bit more girth to your tone, the P-90 Pro pickup is the perfect choice.

Iconic Les Paul heritage

Since its release in the early 1950s, the Les Paul has been one of the most popular solidbody electric guitars in the world. It's used in genres ranging from country to metal and can be found in the hands of players as diverse as Zakk Wylde, Neil Young, and the man whose name adorns the headstock. These beauties are capable of sounds that are rich, warm, and clear, while they can get aggressive, cutting, and mean with little effort. Just about every guitarist at Sweetwater has a Les Paul in their collection — and for good reason.

Quality tonewoods and components

The Epiphone Les Paul Junior sings with all the fatness and clarity of its more expensive cousins. That's due in large part to the body's mahogany construction. Mahogany is a well-known tonewood for its mix of harmonic richness and impressive sustain. The sonic excellence is enhanced further by the Graph Tech nut, which offers better tone and better tuning stability than plastic nuts.

Epiphone Les Paul Junior Solidbody Electric Guitar Features:

  • The classic rock guitar at a value-packed price
  • Premium components include Graph Tech nut and CTS electronics
  • P-90 Pro single-coil pickup delivers snappy tone with rich midrange
  • 12" fretboard radius with medium-jumbo frets for comfortable playability
  • Lightning Bar wrap-around bridge and vintage tuners complete the iconic look

Another Great Epiphone

I have several Gibson,Epiphone,Fender,and all other brands. I have always been fond of Epiphones and this one is no exception, I was very surprised with just the one p90.This guitar is a beast.

My second Epiphone guitar

I always had a love for Les Paul Juniors. I got this one after seeing many good reviews. They were right. This is a great guitar. It plays well and sounds great. The only thing I changed was the knobs. I'm used to speed knobs from my Les Paul. There is not one flaw in this guitar. I did get a spacer to raise the pickup. It was pretty far away from the strings. I had a Gibson a few years ago and I would put this up against it any day.
Music background: I've been playing guitar for over 50 years.

Epiphone Les Paul Junior Demo

Been buying and playing instruments since the 1960's, and Sweetwater is the best music store period. The 2020 Epiphone Les Paul Junior that i purchased as a demo was packaged very well. It arrived dbl boxed in perfect shape, and (it was still in tune) after being trucked through 3 states. Hats off to the awesome 55 point inspection process that weeds out any issues. This guitar looks, plays, and sounds like a real deal Les Paul Junior should. The P90 pup makes a established old school statement that has been heard since the 50's, and adjusting the tone and volume creates numerous sounds with ease. The sustain and tone is very satisfying while playing softly or while letting your freak flag fly Lesley West style with the volume and tone wide open. Gibson and Epiphone are working together to make some very good top quality guitars, and Sweetwater makes sure that they look and play like they should all the way to your doorstep!
