The Gibson looks more champagne/gold coloured than silver. Do not like.

I'm addicted to silver-sparkle guitars

Brandon Anix, is that you?!?!


But, seriously, I don't mind LP's, especially black ones, minus the gold hardware. I'd definitely go with a Tokai, if I could hunt one down.

I like LP juniors and other similar guitars. Don't think I could get on with a ful LP.

This.

I've always loved LP juniors, before I even knew what a humbucker was I knew I wanted an LP junior one day.
I'd like to do one as a project, but I can't see it happening for a while.

there's something about a jr, to me it's less distractions, just playing. it's amazing how many sounds you can get out of one pickup, your hands and a volume and tone.

that silverburst is same guitar adam jones uses in tool, he's obsessed with them.

I played a friends 1 pickup P90 Epiphone SG for a while (SG Jr?). Was cool tonez though annoyed me that I couldn't flick to the neck pickup for solos.

i used to try and get round that by turning my tone pot down to get a kinda neck pickup tone. my epiphone was an sg jr, cherry red. would kill for another one.

I like the Gibson silverburst, not so much the Epi.
Big fan of Tool, I always liked Jones' guitars.

jones is very underrated, he uses the least amount of gear to create so many different textures.

Yeah I like him a lot.
Am always impressed with the visuals he does for their shows/videos too.

i think gibson were thinking of doing a adam jones signature silverburst custom.

Nice. If only they would do a lefty version...

Juniors use P90's or P1000's. I agree with everyone here, they are special, i had two over the years and sold them.

My first guitar was (and indeed still is) a DeArmond M-65. Kind of a Les Paul Junior type affair. For the last two years I've bene meaning to get some GFS pickupps for it, because it is a great player.

Yeah I meant more that before I knew anything about guitars I knew I wanted a junior.

I dunno why I didn't put p-90 though :S.

i've always wanted the next dearmond up, the m-75 with blue finish and the dearmond pickups.

Aye, that was a nice range of guitars. There was the M-65c, too, which I think had a scratchplate and chrome covers.

Icey Bomb:

if someone has one of those, i'll buy it

Didn't notice this thread but for what it's worth, I've played an Edwards Black LP custom and it was nearly as good as a Gibson, noticeably better playability-wise than an epiphone.
