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.

Desirability:
This is high quality for half the price of a custom shop model.
Sound:
The ONLY Les paul out of 12 that I've owned that can sound great clean, and distorted..all out of one pick up. FAT mahogany tone!!!! Great for all styles of Rock and blues.
Ease of Use:
Slim taper neck, and low action. The guitar plays itself! Plays like buttah.
Support:
sent me parts free of charge for another one of my guitars.
Overall:
Great guitar! If you're not a fan of green day, or billie Jo, Do yourself a favor and try this guitar unbiased. You'll be plesantly pleased. I've owned 12 Les Pauls,,, Customs, Standards, Specials, Juniors, and a BFG (from 1970's models to current) This one is at the top of my list for favorites.

"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.
