"Great Guitar"

Feature:
The guitar comes in classic white which is almost imposible to find on a junior and comes with a cool case that has cheeta print interior. The guitar features a custom h-90 pick up that BJ him self worked on with gibson

Quality:
Its a gibson, what more do i have to say

Value:
This guitar isnt bad for the price and its value will increase as time goes by if you want to sell it.

Desirability:
I love the classic white and vintage sunburst paint jobs on this guitar. You wont find any other junior in white without some sort of miracle. This is a great looking junior.

Sound:
It has a great edgy tone that i love

Ease of Use:
The neck is nice and skinny so you can monover prety easily. I like this neck beter then any other one on a guitar ive played in the past. The pick up on here is great for rock and roll,punk rock, and with the proper adjustments and amp a led zepplein like sound.

Support:
there usally isnt any problems with gibson.

Overall:
This guitar will deffinetly last me. The only reason i would feel a need to get a new one would be if i started playing contry or they started selling the jimmy page les paul custom for under $6,000. I would deffinetly get this if you love rock n' roll, but if you play say blues or contry i wound recomend the gibson es-335.

"Worth every penny."

Feature:
Although it only has volume and tone knobs, they are both very responsive. The tone is quite impressive in the way of its own response.

Quality:
Very nice finish. The neck is slim and smooth, and I think that that can be quite useful for the quickness of my playing.

Value:
This guitar is worth every penny I paid for it. It was a little pricey, but I knew it was worth it.

Desirability:
When I first laid eyes on it, I knew I wanted it.

Sound:
This sound is just like a standard P-90 single coil. The only real difference between this pickup and a standard P-90, is that this one has a higher output.

Ease of Use:
It is very easy to use this guitar. It's lighter than the standard LP Junior, and the slim neck makes it more accessible to first-time users.

Support:
Gibson has always been very easy to deal with whenever I need any sort of product.

Overall:
I doubt that I will ever find a need to replace this guitar. It suits my style of playing, and the sound is exactly what I have been looking for in a guitar.

About This Product!
Description
From Our Catalog
Gibson is proud to introduce the Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Junior. Designed in close cooperation with Billie Joe, the signature guitar is modeled closely after "Floyd," Billie Joe's original 1956 Les Paul Junior. With a Mahogany body and neck and Nickel hardware, the Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Junior combines the best features of a vintage Junior with some modern twists. With a special design double-coil P-90 and a vintage correct non-compensated wraparound bridge, the Billie Joe Armstrong is a ferocious, resonant rock 'n' roll guitar, truly worthy of Billie Joe's name.
