Gibson LPJ Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:

  • Classic Les Paul tones from choice tonewoods

  • High-output humbuckers deliver solid Les Paul sound
  • Black hardware gives this guitar a unique look
Classic guitar tones from choice tonewoods

The Gibson LPJ serves up fat guitar tones thanks to its mahogany body. The carved maple cap provides the perfect amount of aggression and bite to this extremely playable guitar. You'll find the maple neck's '50s rounded profile to be the perfect combination of chunk and comfort. Classic trapezoid inlays in the rosewood fretboard give the Gibson LPJ an unmistakable look. This guitar serves up serious tone and killer playability.

High-output humbuckers deliver solid Les Paul sound

To capture the classic Les Paul sound, Gibson decided to give the LPJ a pair of classic-style humbuckers, including a 490R at the neck and a 498T at the bridge. These pickups capture the sound of traditional 1950s PAFs tweaked to bring out more midrange snarl. Together with the LPJ's mahogany body, this pair of humbuckers gives you a tone that was born to rock.

Black hardware gives this guitar a unique look

The Gibson LPJ offers a look that is different from other Les Pauls. Black pickup covers, tuner button, and control knobs give this guitar a sleek look that means business. If you're not into the chrome or gold look, the Gibson LPJ is the perfect alternative. The lack of a pickguard also make this guitar stand out from the crowd. If you like to buck the norm, but still want killer tones and playability, the Gibson LPJ is for you.

Gibson LPJ Solidbody Electric Guitar Features:

  • An affordable Les Paul with great tone and feel

  • High-output Gibson humbuckers deliver solid Les Paul sound
  • Traditional weight-relieved mahogany body and carved maple top
  • Comfortable '50s rounded profile maple neck with rosewood fretboard
