Description
When it comes to punk rock, few musicians are more highly regarded than Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong. From his cutting vocals to his power chord-heavy riffs, he's created a raw, in-your-face style that's made him stand out amongst his peers. This Gibson Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Junior was designed in tandem with the Green Day Frontman, and it's the perfect guitar for collectors, punk rockers, and anyone seeking a top-notch rock 'n' roll machine.
This LP Junior features a solid mahogany body, giving it a rich, full-bodied sound with deep lows, punchy mids, and truckloads of sustain. Its Indian rosewood fingerboard has a comfortable 12" radius, and its 22 medium jumbo frets allow for deep, screamin' bends and vibrato. Not only does it play great, but this model's Kluson Gibson Deluxe tuners and Wraparound tailpiece ensure rock-solid intonation and tuning stability.
If angry, hostile riffage is your style, you'll love this guitar's single P-90 DC Dogear pickup that delivers a bright, sizzling tone that sounds excellent no matter what amp you run it through. Put it in front of your favorite clean amp, and this pickup will sound nice and clear, bringing life to every note you play. Kick on your favorite dirt pedals and crank up the gain, and you'll conjure a brutal, face-melting snarl. And thanks to this pickup's hum-canceling design, you can shred to your heart's content without that annoying single-coil hum.
Complete with an eye-popping pink hardshell case with a leopard print interior, the Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Junior is a fantastic guitar that'll put a smile on the faces of punk rock players and Green Day fans alike.
