Teonte10 Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 (edited) Hi, I am thinking of buying my first Les Paul Special model and just have a few simple questions related to these models. I've come across a lot of Specials when searching online, but I noticed some of them are named SP Juniors with two humbuckers and P90s. Is there a difference between Special and Junior Special with two pickups, or are they basically the same guitars with different names? I found this Gibson Les Paul Special Junior with Humbuckers which I like. I think it has been manufactured somewhere between 2002 and 2006. The price is reasonable and it is in good condition but as I found it online, I cannot try it. Is there anything specific about these models I should be aware of? 😀 Thanks in advance Edited May 31, 2023 by Teonte10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveFord Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 I can't answer your questions but I'm pretty sure that model you're looking at is a satin finish, not a gloss. I went through that trying to find a TV Yellow Special many years ago - the seller was pissed when I sent it back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
