Gibson Billie Joe Armstrong Signature Les Paul Junior 2023 – Present – Vintage Ebony

Up for sale is this absolutely awesome rock machine in its’ equally awesome case. No dings, stories, repairs. There may be superficial surface playwear, but I could not find any in taking these photos. The guitar has lived on my lap or in its’ case – in fact, the above pictures are the only time it has even been on a guitar stand. This is one of only 250 made in this color with this case, which is the nicest guitar case I have ever seen or used. Case candy included and will ship in a Gibson box.

The guitar itself is a joy to play. Great slim taper neck, unavailable on the “stock” Junior, and a killer P90 that sings or roars when you tell it to. If you haven’t owned or played a Junior, you will love the simplicity and tones.

We happen to have bought two of these. This was the case queen of the two. If you like LP Jrs or Green Day, you won’t find a nicer example of this guitar!

I have added three important upgrades:

First, a Music City “Savvy” Bridge. The Savvy is a compensated wraparound bridge with locking studs and provides better tuning stability, intonation, and sustain in comparison with the stock wraparound. This was professionally installed by a luthier during the guitar’s professional setup and improves on the stock bridge in every way.

Second, Kluson Revolution high ratio (19:1) locking tuners with keystone buttons. These visually match the factory tuning machines, but are much nicer. The locking tuners make for easy and quick string changes and further enhance tuning stability.

Third, Schaller strap locks.

From Gibson:

“The new Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul™ Junior is an exceptional guitar to rock out on, whether you play rock or punk. Designed in collaboration with Green Day’s legendary guitarist, it has everything you need for great tone with no frills to get in your way, including a mahogany neck with a Billie Joe Armstrong SlimTaper™ profile, rosewood fretboard, Graph Tech® nut, and Billie Joe’s signature on the truss rod cover. The mahogany body is equipped with a wraparound bridge/tailpiece and a P-90 DC Dogear pickup. The P-90 DC is our latest hum-canceling design. It features a modernized version of the Sidewinder dual-coil technology that was first developed by Seth Lover in 1958, delivering a hum-free P-90 with the most authentic P-90 tonality yet, retaining the classic sound of a single coil P-90 while eliminating the noise.”
