Epiphone Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Junior $399 Player Pack is BETTER?

[@jacob3771]

I don't think a Junior has ever seen that much action straight out of the box

[@MashaT22]

This guitar looks really amazing! Love it! I kind of wonder why the better spec guitar didn’t come with a choice of the slim taper neck or not. I tend to think most people would prefer the slim taper neck for a Jr. It’s too bad because the thicker 50’s neck makes the more expensive guitar unplayable for so many people and automatically forces those folks to buy the player pack version. Still, the player pack version is really amazing looking. I’d probably upgrade to a TUSQ nut because that plastic will wear quickly. Other than that, looks really playable!

[@esdrasmontoya4740]

In my opinion Juniors are meant to have thicker necks than average, that is one of the features that make them special, simple yet "rustic" playing experience. I would have named it something like "Epiphone Les Paul Junior BJA Singnature 50" or something for its classic features tho

[@joshoakes4236]

Pretty cool setup. I wish This would have come out sooner. I already got my son a guitar for Christmas

[@punkfrenzy8373]

Jake Gylenhal is a great guitar player, but fr I want this guitar, the Gibson one is just expensive af

[@jlore6344]

This starter kit looks pretty good really. I will recommend it to those that ask about a set for their new player.

[@jayjaded]

The other guitar brought me to your page and I'm glad I discovered it. Keep up the great work. Hope you hit and exceed your goal.

[@jellisor1995]

I love the simplicity and vintage feel, it’s a 10/10 from me!! Would be beyond stoked to win it haha!!

[@BenAck912]

I would love to have one of these. Green Day is my favorite band.

[@DrJeebles]

I wish something like that had been my first guitar. I would play that now. The single P90 is awesome.

[@Jedan1806]

I’ve never wanted anything more in my life now I really want to practice more so I can get this

[@SteveResor]

Even on thru KZbin that amp sounds better than the little Squier SP-10 I have ! For $399 Your getting a lot for the money !! And its something to mod after a while too.

[@aj81ds]

New fan here and good info/demo. The guitar looks really fun but I really like the look of that practice amp. I loved how you took some time to show the amp in detail b/c no one else has done that yet. I just started watching your channel and from the few videos I have seen I'm really enjoying the content. The only thing that kind of bothered me was the camera was having a lot of focus issues. It's still a well informed video though. Keep up the good work.

[@beluumu]

Just bought it and I'm so happy with it.

[@clockwork914]

I wish these were available for first guitars as a kid. I would have been stoked !

[@andiasa2641]

Good luck with your goal and good luck to everyone else. This is a really pretty guitar 🤞.

[@benjaminmiranda2523]

I found this channel before 5000 subs with the strat giveaway and its cool to see it's been growing. Congrats. Nice guitar btw. I've never seen that amp though, looks funny.

[@PlayandTradeGuitars]

Thanks for hanging with us! Glad you’re here

[@KeganVanSickle]

It would be cool to buy the bolt on version 2nd hand, and modify it.

[@tacticaltwenty-two2011]

Am I the only one wondering why he didn't play a Green Day song? Great video and very informative. Will probably get the kid one, she's a fan of Green Day.

[@lumbrgod]

That Is a nice simple p90 guitar that I'm sure plays great. I like the classic look of a LP. Just needs some well placed removable stickers.

[@CitizenofMelee]

I'd play it. I've always liked the Juniors and Specials.

[@SSFarm.6373]

Epiphone is making some pretty cool kits for beginners, looking at one of their SGs now.

[@azbababooey]

I think the BJA guitar is great, everyone needs a single pup guitar to learn to create tone with your fingers.

[@derickrodriguezreyes264]

This should be super exciting for new players (including me hahah)! It was imposible to find a white junior as a hardcore Green Day fan!

[@izzy8371]

Wish there was a shop here that could have this guitar. I wonder how it sounds if you play Sex Pistols. Probably awesome and i'd like to try it ! Another great video, keep it up :3

[@GuitarFabi]

That's one way to get subscribers. Good luck 🤘🏼

[@marciomvp9458]

I have a Les Paul Standard and a Strat and am looking for a P90. Since Jared James' is gone and I was considering the Billie Joe with set neck, those are out of stock also. After looking at this video I am really thinking about the player pack. I know I will end up changing electronics and these amp will look nice in my room.

[@PlayandTradeGuitars]

Here’s an A/B comparison: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qnrQnHRniJ2akMU Thanks for watching!

[@kylekimbro6509]

Cool video! Thanks for the demo!

[@georgespringer3897]

Great demo on the cheaper Junior! Sound pretty good! Wish the $549 model had a slimtaper neck. Question, was this video recorded with an iPhone 13 out 13 Pro? Looks like the cinematic video feature introduced on that phone was used for this video. Thanks!

[@PlayandTradeGuitars]

Thanks for watching, yes sir iPhone 13 Pro cinematic! We've been really excited to learn how to use it

[@georgespringer3897]

@@PlayandTradeGuitars Awesome! I thought so. It looked really familiar to me as I've been using the 13 Pro as well and playing around with Cinematic mode as much as I can. Thanks again for the video!

[@ZodiakV1]

Just purchased today hoping I made a good choice!

[@philsequeira3180]

Congratulations on 20k!!

[@tuneandsmash9346]

Cool guitar, good luck to all

[@caseystrange1532]

So much more worth it in my opinion to spend the extra cash and get the $549 version. Just my opinion.

[@Tiago_007]

Great video! Great guitar for the money!

[@johnboyc5]

I'm torn between getting this or the real one only because I prefer slimmer necks but I really want that case and better hardware

[@brandoncohen3606]

get the 549 one is our arent a beginner.

[@PlayandTradeGuitars]

the electronics are upgraded in the $549, and does sound a little better, but not a vast difference. The neck shape is the defining choice to make over all else with these. Yes, the case is amazing though

[@mattestrada1676]

I think I know what I’m getting myself for Xmas

[@MikeColeVocals]

Man epiphone has a lot of great stuff going on these days!

[@fareggaarmada7470]

i really wish i have enough money to buy one of those billie signature guitar :’)

[@fareggaarmada7470]

the things i like from the guitar, first its billie signature haha. two, the model and the look from the guitar is really vintage and simple which is damn cooooll. three, the sound either distorted or clean is really suits to almost all music style ( in my opinion ). four, the actual size of the guitar is perfect not too big not too small ( for the average human stretch haha ). five, i love billie :)

[@goncaloveiga]

Beautiful guitar 🎸

Come on bro, just give it to me, nobody's gonna know. I'll give you my guitar if u want (don't know why you'll want it tho but hey)... Jk but seriously i want it so bad lol

[@PlayandTradeGuitars]

Fingers crossed for you!

[@michaelcosta7235]

Honestly it doesn't sound good to me. The 549.00 set beck model with the better pickup is worth that alone.

[@PlayandTradeGuitars]

Keep in mind it’s as much an amp demo as guitar demo. We A/B’d both through the same setting, not in this video, and they both sounded good. At the end of the day, the $549 is higher quality but neck shape is a make or break for many. Thanks for watching!
