Gibson Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Junior Electric Guitar (with Case)

No longer available at zZounds
The Gibson Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Junior has attitude to match its namesake. Its dual-coil P90 and wraparound bridge make it a great rock guitar.

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 Gibson 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 Gibson Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Junior is a ferocious, resonant rock 'n' roll guitar, truly worthy of Billie Joe's name.

"Great Guitar"

Overall: 4.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
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.
Sound
It has a great edgy tone that i love
Features
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
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.
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.
Manufacturer Support

The Wow Factor
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.
