This is a 1959 Gibson Les Paul Junior Double Cutaway. You note that the previous est. was 3500-4000. I think it would be slightly higher now. The lowest hammer price that I was able to find is $3200, and they go up from there. The price guide on the first link also backs this up. My valuation is based on averages, but note the high priced outliers.
