Epiphone

Description

No time to search the world around—players in search of pure punk attitude will find exactly what they need in the Epiphone Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Junior. Built around a no-frills platform of one pickup, two controls and plenty of raw rock ’n’ roll power, it captures the straightforward, high-volume philosophy that has defined the Green Day frontman's lasting influence. Finished in a striking new Radiant Red gloss, this signature model strips the formula down to what matters most: a slab mahogany body, a single Epiphone P-90 PRO pickup and a streamlined control layout that puts expressive, hard-hitting tone directly at your fingertips. A substantial Vintage '50s mahogany neck, wraparound Lightning Bar bridge and dependable road-ready hardware complete a guitar built for players who believe great songs come from conviction—not complication. It all equates to a straight-ahead signature instrument that's ready to deliver every ounce of energy the moment you plug in.

Slab Mahogany Construction for Classic Les Paul Junior Punch

A slab mahogany body paired with a glued-in set mahogany neck delivers the resonant, midrange-forward voice that has made the Les Paul Junior a favorite of players for generations. The lightweight, straightforward construction maximizes sustain and responsiveness, while the wraparound Lightning Bar bridge transfers string energy directly into the body for lively attack and impressive resonance. It's a simple formula that continues to prove why the Junior remains one of rock's most enduring electric guitar designs.

Epiphone P-90 PRO Pickup for Raw, Dynamic Tone

At the heart of the Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Junior is a single Epiphone P-90 PRO dogear pickup, delivering everything from warm, articulate cleans to snarling overdrive with exceptional touch sensitivity. Routed through straightforward master volume and tone controls equipped with premium CTS potentiometers, the streamlined electronics encourage players to shape their sound through picking dynamics and the guitar's controls rather than endless switching options. The result is an expressive, responsive voice that's equally capable of gritty punk rhythms, driving rock chords and singing lead tones.

Vintage '50s Mahogany Neck for Confident Playability

Carved to a substantial Vintage '50s profile, the mahogany neck provides a reassuring feel that encourages powerful rhythm playing and expressive lead work alike. A rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium-jumbo frets offers a smooth, familiar playing surface, while the Graph Tech nut and Epiphone Deluxe tuners promote dependable tuning stability through aggressive performances. The result is a neck that feels every bit as solid and dependable as the guitar's no-frills design philosophy.

Signature Billie Joe Armstrong Style and Custom Hardshell Case

The limited-edition Radiant Red gloss finish gives this Les Paul Junior unmistakable stage presence, complemented by a black single-ply pickguard, nickel hardware and a reproduction of Billie Joe Armstrong's signature on the back of the Kalamazoo-style headstock. A custom black hardshell case with a leopard-print interior completes the package, providing dependable protection while adding another unmistakable nod to Billie Joe's personal style.

A Stage-Ready Les Paul Junior Inspired by a Punk Legend

From the raw punk energy of Dookie to the unfiltered emotional honesty of songs such as “Boulevard of Broken Dreams” and “Wake Me Up When September Ends,” Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong has spent decades connecting with listeners through songs that cut straight to the point. His signature Les Paul Junior follows the same philosophy, combining classic slab mahogany construction with a single P-90 PRO pickup and simple volume and tone controls for an immediate, highly expressive playing experience. Equally suited to hard-driving rhythm work, snarling leads and everything in between, it gives punk and rock players a road-ready instrument built around feel, power and conviction. Available for a limited time, the Epiphone Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Junior delivers the stripped-down design, dynamic tone and unmistakable character at the heart of Billie Joe’s sound.
