Orville Les Paul Junior | 1990 Made in Japan (Terada)

Orville was Gibson's Japanese domestic market line, built in partnership with master luthiers at the Terada factory before the brand was retired in 1998, making later examples like this 1990 Les Paul Junior increasingly rare. Stripped back to essentials, one dogear P-90, one volume, one tone, it delivers real growl and bite from the solid mahogany body, with the wrap-around tailpiece adding extra sustain and punch. Condition is outstanding, with the gloss Cherry finish beautifully preserved, no fret wear on the rosewood fingerboard, and the guitar completely original aside from one replacement strap button.
