Epiphone - Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Junior - Electric Guitar - Radiant Red - w/ Hardshell Case
One pickup, two knobs, and unmistakable attitude
Billie Joe Armstrong has always favored a straightforward, high-volume approach, and his instruments follow suit. As Green Day fills arenas and continues to influence a new generation of punk players, the Epiphone Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Junior captures his unmistakable voice and vibe in a striking new Radiant Red finish. Reduced to the fundamentals, one pickup, two knobs, and pure attitude, it’s crafted for musicians who want to plug in and push things to the limit. No frills, just unfiltered punk spirit.
Created in collaboration with the Green Day icon, the Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Junior delivers professional-level performance at an accessible price. Its design includes a single cutaway slab mahogany body paired with a set mahogany neck. The neck features a substantial 50s Vintage profile and a rosewood fretboard outfitted with 22 medium jumbo frets and pearloid dot inlays. Up top, the Kalamazoo-style headstock houses smooth and accurate Epiphone Vintage Deluxe tuners and a Graph Tech® nut for dependable tuning stability. A reproduction of Billie Joe Armstrong’s signature appears in black on the back of the headstock for a personal finishing touch.
At the opposite end, the strings are anchored by a nickel-plated Lightning Bar wraparound bridge, directly mounted to the body to enhance sustain and resonance, and compensated for improved intonation. A black single-ply Les Paul Junior pickguard completes the classic look.
Driving the sound is a single Epiphone P-90 PRO™ pickup, capable of delivering everything from warm, articulate cleans to an aggressive, full-bodied growl. The electronics are routed through master volume and tone controls equipped with high-quality CTS® potentiometers, offering impressive tonal flexibility with a minimalist layout, simply adjust the controls and vary your picking position to shape your sound. It’s a streamlined, road-ready setup that performs night after night, just ask Billie Joe.
Each Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Junior includes a black custom hardshell case with a leopard print interior, making it ready for anything from your first club show to the world’s biggest stages. Pick one up and experience the powerful tone and bold attitude it brings the moment you strap it on, but don’t wait; the Epiphone Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Junior in Radiant Red is only available for a limited time.
