Well actually DAMN SAM ASH --- and lets have me a FULL ENTREE of EATIN SOME CROW!

---Biddlin I owe you an apology----wait for it ----its in here----

for putting the 2015 Jr.'s (A guitar I have lusted after for 2 years now) on SALE!

ALl the GIBBO bashing aside--- I have played many of these in GC's and SA's and mom and pop music shops --- but the 900.00 price point on release was just NOT in my wheelhouse-----

HOWEVER --- 20.00 a month --and a sale price of 479.00 for this caliber of guitar is REEEEDICULOUSLY CHEAP!

Take a gander at the specs per Gibson --- the features--- the special pick up the woods used (for you "tonewoodies" and the build quality
HAVE RENEWED MY FAITH IN GIBSONS!!

yes--- pics or it didnt happen---


First ---- what the "G" has to say-----
Gibson.com: Les Paul Junior 2015

Tronicals --- ZERO nut----WIDE thin neck ----and AMAZINGLY articulate Dogear P90 modeled after the original with set slugs and low impedance really makes just subtle adjustments to either knob allow a HUGE range of tones from Quack, Bark snarl LESLIE WEST to mellow jazz and almost BB King like blues......


I think I might have a "guitar Type" ------

SOOOOOOOOOOOO

Biddlin --- your apology ------

I believe I poo poo'ed the Tronicals---- nay varily I may have bordered on ridicule of the things ----- almost DAMNATION if you will ---and as I recall -----on another forum taht will remain nameless----we held several heated and verbal dick wagging sessions to such.....or maybe we didnt ----- HELL I dont know I drink a lot--- any way.........

I wish all my guitars had this poop!

under 2 seconds ----Im in tune----
might take 3 if I want to be in an "alternate" tune-----love it----- work smooth and accurately ---

MODS???? MODS you ask --- what MODS will do to this guitar------- NOT a damn one ---its staying pristine and original.

As I think these where only made for 1 year------ many purists bought and RIPPED tronicals off and changed nuts and pots and caps and removed the TINY circuit board........even removed pups-----


NOT me -----its sheer purfection and staying just like it is!

For less than most Epiphone you can still snag a top quality Gibbo------

Hurry guys before they run out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I am not gonna state that every and all Gibsons are Perfect (they aint) and I will not go "cutting the "G" any slack! But them Nashville boys got this model damn SKIPPY RIGHT!

Dear Adrian,

I am only played by beginning students now. Don't you want to feel my smooth wood in your hands???

They are beautiful guitar's to look at. They sound great. I just can't abide the feel of the neck. It's an awesome deal for those who can.

+1 on the suggestion to get the free titanium nut from Gibson. One I played that I know had been a store demo for a couple of years was showing signs of wear on the brass nut. I played it several times over the span of it's life as a demo and the wear was noticeable by the end.

It was not much of a "risk" as I say I have played them for a couple years now and always loved them---- when visiting a friend who owns MANY high end PRS, Gibson, Martin, Fender guitars----- the entire weekend---- I played his 2015 Jr. --- hated leaving it behind when I left----tried trading him several things for it.......no dice ---

He is the one who clued me into the sale. Dynamite guitar for under 500.00
