Gibson Les Paul Junior refinished TV Yellow -57 serial 70384, beg. (Stockholm)
Excellent condition, 8/10, this is a recently restored and refinished guitar (probably around 2018) in Limed Mahogany typical for circa 1955 (Limed Mahogany or Natural finish, It has been defined as the 'Mark 1' version of the TV color, pleasantly darker and more transparent then the beige color or the canary yellow on later TV Models), the guitar has all original or at least era-correct parts for a 1957 Gibson guitar except for the tuners which are modern replicas of the single line Kluson Deluxe 3-on-a-strip without any markings on the back, pots date 134713 (13th week of 1957) and 134734 (34th week of 1957), but it has some stories; the neck and fingerboard has been replaced with a near perfect replica (possibly because of a neck break, very common solution), and there seems to be evidence of a filled neck pickup cavity so this guitar was probably routed for an extra P90 before it was restored, all the body cavities correspond to 50´s specs including the pickup cavity popsicle rout and no traces of sunburst color so we believe this to have been a TV finish from the factory, comes including a 1970´s shaped black Gibson hardcase with no logo on the lid and blue lining and a CITES document. Weight: 3,7 kg
