When plugged into an amplifier, the guitar impresses with an amazingly dynamic sound character that can be shaped by the playing technique and brings both clean and overdrive sounds to life. To adjust the tone, Gibson has also equipped the Les Paul Junior Reissue with a hand-wired circuit that promises particularly smooth Treble roll-offs thanks to the first-class oil paper capacitor.
