Juding by the price of the current satin finish LP Jr's with the same MSRP. These will street at $839.00
WHY IS A JR. VERSION SO FUCKING EXPENSIVE.

I wish I had cash monies to buy a Jr. Only now I can't decide between white and pelham.
Totally cool.

If it's a satin finish like the other jr's that are out now, then it will look weird in person. I saw one of the LP doublecut basses in person in the satin pelham finish and it was really odd looking.

I think it's just the picture. Has to be. Cause I really like the idea, but the picture looks weak and cheap. I bet in real life it looks better.

If that's the case, then I am genuinely interested in this. I just hope it winds up having a nicer fretboard and fret job than all the recent sub $1000 gibsons I've played have had.

Sweet, that's cheaper than I thought. I wish gibson would make longer runs so I would actually have a chance to find this shit used for cheap.
