The Gibson 1957 Les Paul Junior Single Cutaway VOS Electric Guitar, Vintage Sunburst is a stripped-down, affordable alternative to the more expensive Les Paul models.
The Gibson 1957 Les Paul Junior Single Cutaway VOS features a dark brown color around the guitar’s edge, with a golden sunburst shading in the middle of the body. This finish would eventually become known as Vintage Sunburst.
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.
