help Maybach Lester Junior Double Cut Aged FAQ
What pickup layout does the Maybach Lester Junior Double Cut use?
It uses one bridge-position P-90-style pickup with a volume and tone control. This deliberately minimal layout follows the classic Gibson Les Paul Junior Double Cut formula.
What is the advantage of the Lester Junior's double-cut body?
The two cutaways provide more open access around the upper frets than the single-cut Lester Junior shape. The design also changes the guitar's balance and visual profile without adding a second pickup.
Is the Maybach Lester Junior Double Cut made in Czechoslovakia?
No, it is built in the Czech Republic, which became an independent country in 1993. Maybach is a German brand whose electric guitars are produced by Czech craftspeople.
What does Aged mean on this Maybach model?
Maybach deliberately checks and wears the nitrocellulose finish, then ages visible components to resemble a played vintage guitar. The marks are factory-applied and do not mean the instrument dates from the 1950s.
