Like it's earlier sister, the Gibson Les Paul Junior, ithad been created for sale to anyone who wanted Gibson quality for a cheap price. It is known for it's single P-90 treble pickup,and the wrap-around bridge instead of the 2-bar tune-o-matic bridge. From 1961 to 1963, it was branded with the "Les Paul Junior" name. In 1963, "Les Paul" was removed from the peghead and officially called the SG Junior. From 1965 to 1971, it had a generic SG pickguard with a soapbar P90 rather than the original dog-ear. It was discontinued in 1971. The late 60s version has been re-issued by Gibson since 2003.
