Gibson VOS 57 LES PAUL JUNIOR S. CUT - just as the Les Paul Custom was the deluxe model of the Les Paul line, the Junior (also introduced in 1954) was the economy model. With its no-nonsense look, single P-90 pickup, the Junior was an instant sensation.
The VOS Finishing Process Explained:
VOS stands for “Vintage Original Spec”. The finishing process on VOS models has been customised to reflect the way Gibson finished Les Paul guitars back in the '50s. They receive a thinner nitro-cellulose lacquer finish which is applied, sanded, and buffed by hand; in other words, more care is put into the finishing process. This extra care is intended to make VOS guitars look like gently aged and well-cared-for vintage guitars. It also helps the guitars 'breathe' better and therefore to resonate and sustain more freely, making them much better instruments.
