Every Guitar Arsenal Should Have This Guitar

[@robertlesku1907]

if you are a big Lollar fan, try the Eastman guitars😉

[@ryangunwitch-black]

I’ve been dying for the T64. With the Bigsby. If Gibson or Epiphone made one it would sell like crazy. And the Gibson would be easily twice the price. 😂

[@akwamarsunzal]

I absolutely love my P90 Double Cut Jr! It has become a go to guitar for me. The great thing is, you learn so much about tone when you have just one pickup! I can play rock, punk, funk and jazz... It takes time to find all the tones but its FUN to do!

[@michelleneeds4165]

Johnny Thunders famously played the double cut junior. King of rock n roll as far as I'm concerned. Born to lose!

[@BrettPapa]

They are amazing!

[@cchavez248]

The sad part is when you get used to the responsiveness of the Jr. with a good P-90, and no other guitars fill that void!

[@tito.tarantula]

The JUNIOR has become my desert island guitar. I love the simplicity, the clean tone, the daaaaaarty tone, the look, the feel... just everything. I installed the Seymour Duncan Antiquity P-90 in mine and am absolutely happy with the results. Everything's subjective of course, but all in all, you can't go wrong with a Junior.

[@BrettPapa]

It is a must have guitar for sure!

[@tito.tarantula]

@@BrettPapa I'm not selling my other guitars just yet but I must admit, the single pickup vibe is highly underrated. I've decided to pick up a used Epi Junior double cut as a hot rod project I can mess around with and try my hand at repainting/relic'ing... and me thinks a Lollar P-90 dog ear will do the trick. That was quite the growl you got out of that Jr. Thx for the inspiration, Brett.

[@GeauxSaints121]

Picked up a 1957 Junior before the prices went way up. Absolutely love it

[@highsocietyskate]

[@jeffcookdotau]

The nail on your second finger looks very familiar. I closed a sliding door on my hand years ago and my finger looked like that for months!

[@ryanmcgrath9869]

P-90s into an overdriven amp is pure rock-n-roll. Just ask Mike Ness of Social Distortion. Just picked up my 4th P-90 guitar. A mint 2001 PRS McCarty 10-top. Love P-90s. Listen to any of the last 3 Social D albums. So good.

[@TheFairway8]

Very true. He got his inspiration for P90s from Neil Young when they supported him once. Johnny 2 Bags uses ales Paul Junior. Johnny Thunders, Mick Jones and Guy Days from 999 all famously played Les Paul Juniors

[@pharmerdavid1432]

My first PRS is a Korina/Limba singlecut SE with one Antiquity pickup and one knob for both volume and treble - ONE!

[@VintageTubeTone]

Totally agree. I've been in love with the Jr ever since Lesly West played it on Mississippi Q. Had a vintage JR in my hands at Norm's. Still regret not getting it.

[@BrettPapa]

Yeah they are amazing! New ones are great too though!

[@anthonycraig1458]

Have a custom shop 57 junior reissue and it's officially awesome! I regularly do gigs with it plugged straight into a Marshall Studio Vintage with a 2x12 cab. No overdrive pedals, boosts or any such stuff, just use the volume and tone controls on the guitar and it can cover pretty much anything.

[@BrettPapa]

100% agree!

[@giulioluzzardi7632]

​@@BrettPapaBet that's fun, I use a 40watt Fender Pro,reverb and it sings with a Jr or Special.

[@lawrencekovalcik8848]

Smile on my face the whole time during this..truly awesome...👍 Thx much!! My only hesitation would be intonating as I've had issues with these bridges/tailpieces in the past, but obviously not a problem here.. It sounds incredible.:)

[@BrettPapa]

Music City Bridge can really help with that although the two Gibsons I have had have no issues with that.

[@lawrencekovalcik8848]

@@BrettPapa great thx. I've gone the graph tech resomax route before..liked it.. Will check music city out👍.

[@daveakerman712]

These guitars rip. I bought a $550 new from Gibson and completely refinished it and upgraded the components, went with the Seymour Duncan Antiquities in it and it will go from chimey strat tones to rip your face off by rolling the volume. Topped it off with a custom decal on the back of the exterminator guy in the top hat VH used but added the JR logo onto the hammer. Seriously epic axe, will never be for sale.

[@300rivers4]

Obviously, in the right hands, a lot of sounds can come form almost any guitar. The thing I really like about the Jr is that it can just naturally sounds like a fat Telecaster or a regular LP so fluidly.

[@jon210478]

Been rocking the Lollars in my guitars for years. P90, singles and humbuckers. Best pickups out there to my ears!

[@BrettPapa]

Mine too!

[@dbwagner0]

Agreed. Loller is my hands down favorite.

[@compucorder64]

I like the Les Paul Specials, because I love that round singing tone of the neck P90 driven hard. Plus the extra nice touches like the binding feel a bit nicer. And the double P90 pickup against a TV Yellow body is a great aesthetic.

[@Maallikonnokkona2346]

Andy McCoy used to have exactly the same guitar when he was young.. I ordered it yesterday because of the great look and sound that made me fall in love with it and especially the fact that Andy McCoy has used it.. Andy McCoy has greatly influenced my playing and what kind of sound I have nowadays, the next guitars I will buy after that will be a gibson les paul Black beauty 58 and two Zemaitis guitars.. that's all I'll tell everyone that even though it's advertised as a beginner's guitar, it has no bearing on my own playing.. for example, I've been playing for 9 years that is, at the professional level, so I am, so it doesn't matter if it's for beginners, it matters if it's good to play

[@BrettPapa]

Awesome you will love it!

[@kristopherk5454]

Love the full disclosure regarding pickup swaps.

[@BrettPapa]

Truth is they all sounded great. Was a tough call!

[@edfederoff2679]

I've got a few Eastwood Joey Leone signatures with P-90s, and some with various humbuckers - and I favor the P-90s. Their clean tones when you pull the volume down are pure, a little ringy, and true - but still have the slightest edge of tough/rough that I can only call "soul".

[@RobertBakerGuitar]

100000000% YES!!!

[@markmcdonald5711]

Just got mine Friday, spent all day playing it thru a Marshall DSL1CR, sounded great. Saturday I plugged it into my Swart Atomic Jr., it sounded even better. I could spend the rest of my life in my bedroom playing this guitar.

[@BrettPapa]

Yep they are fantastic!

[@curtisbelyea3454]

“That’s what that sound was that I loved as a child!” Holy shit, did you nail that. Skid Row’s I remember You, Scotti Hill’s solo in particular, is what first made me want to play. Lo and behold, look what Dave Sabo switches to when he ditches the flowery 12 string. Looks like a Junior. And some Marshalls.

[@BrettPapa]

Yep tough to go wrong there!

[@VonBluesman]

I wanted Jr. for a long time, after you saw Charlie Starr & Blackberry Smoke when you were in CA., I saw Lukas Nelson for the 3rd time and I finally bought a 1957 Junior. One thing in common with a Strat, the Junior loves Eb tuning. The P90 has an iconic sound & you can get a lot of tone out of it working the volume. P 90”s were featured on several different guitars popular in the 1950’s & they all sound great. Phil X has got to be right on the one pickup theory . 👍

[@BrettPapa]

Yep they keep it simple and its all about how you play them.

[@jeromewagschal9485]

You simply can't go wrong with a Les Paul Junior... It's so simple and SO effective... It's no wonder Leslie West adopted it... I have a few myself...

[@BrettPapa]

100% agree!

[@Riffmaster54]

I have had a LOT of guitars over my 50 years of playing and my '59 DC Junior still remains as my all time favorite. Sadly I sold it years ago and have regretted it ever since. Like you, I ran it straight into my amps, no need for anything else.

[@BrettPapa]

Yeah I regret even selling my cheaper ones. They were so good.

[@13aphomet]

That is the last guitar I bought and I am lovingggggg it!!

[@stricknine8623]

Brett, that is a great sounding guitar. I have just one Les Paul Jr., and I love mine. A Les Paul Standard with low out-put, scatter-wound, PAF type AC2 pickups will be sort of categorically the same and will have that airy, bell-like tone as well with a little more sustain and considerably quieter. It is for this reason I personally prefer them. But I would never get rid of the LP Junior... Thanks for your videos and all of your content really. Some of the most inspiring on the net !

[@BrettPapa]

Sure thing! Thanks for checking out the videos!

I've got a Special but had to put some work into it: Lindy Fralin unpotted P-90s (+5% overwound bridge), JEL 50's wiring harness with 525k pots and orange caps. I also put copper tape over the inside of the body cavities. The best thing I did was have a PLEK job done and replaced the nut with bone. It made a marginal $800 guitar play and sound like a $3k axe.

[@markslima1557]

What a killer opening lock! 🤘

[@simonsmith2642]

I agree, Im a huge Junior fan, but I usually grab my special, because theres really no difference in tone they both sound fantasic but special, does give me that neck for bluesy neck tone or in between for a quacky tone its a bit more versatile, on the bridge the difference is very slight. But yes Im a Junior fan.

[@BrettPapa]

Yes both are great! If I had to choose I would probably do a special if I needed it to be more versatile if not Junior's are tough to beat!

[@jimmcdougall9973]

From what I can see, the guitar has a very narrow neck. I have had a Gibson L6S Delux since 1978. It has a “broomstick” narrow neck which I love, even though I have piano fingers.

[@popiel52]

Build one. I built an SGjr kit from Precision Guitar Kits. It's just a matched neck and body, so you get to choose finish and all components to your desires. As good or better than a Gibson, if you know what you are doing. It's my favorite at the moment.

I have the Epiphone version from 2019 and it is fantastic! The neck is flawless, including the frets. I have never had to do anything with it except play it, although I did level the pickup a bit but I'm just picky. The neck is a little fatter than my preference but that's ok. It ranks way up there on my list even though it was very inexpensive and I do have a couple of Standards and Fenders among others, all of which cost more than this one.

Like you I love the P-90. I’ve upgraded many to Lollars, He makes the best ones. I have an example of the much maligned Gibson 2016 LPjr that now has a Lollar P90 and his CC in in the neck. It’s now a magic guitar. My Epi Casino Coupe has a pair of low output Lollars and it’s great. I have several more, my latest is a Brian Ray SG in white Fox and it’s nice too. Out of 16 guitars I only have one Gibson with humbuckers and only one fender.
