"We are excited to partner with Gibson to offer a special American Songwriter membership promotion and guitar giveaway around the release of the Lukas Nelson '56 Les Paul Junior," adds Zac Litwack, Chief Marketing Officer, American Songwriter. "This year especially, we feel that is important to bring fans closer to their favorite songwriters and artists with creative, engaging content."

"Lukas is a one-of-a-kind talent and this guitar is an extension of his artistic vision," says Beth Heidt, Global Director of Entertainment Relations, Gibson. "The Amped Guitar learning app encourages newcomers and inspires advanced guitar players to grow and teaming with American Songwriter allows us to reach people who have never picked up a guitar, but always wanted to try."

Lukas and Gibson's Luthiers worked closely to develop his Lukas Nelson '56 Les Paul Junior. Lukas who fronts the acclaimed Promise Of The Real (which also backs Neil Young), road-tested several prototypes on tour over the past year and a half and the end result is Lukas's vision. Based off his beloved 1956 Les Paul Junior which has been his main guitar for several years, the Lukas Nelson '56 Les Paul Junior is rooted in tradition with some modern enhancements.
