I just got some cell phone photos of the new Junior G-Man Prototype!
Mahogany body and neck with a rosewood fretboard. Tung oil over aniline dye finish. Single hard-mounted humbucker. Locking tuners. Tune-O-Matic bridge and tailpiece.
This was the guitar I originally had in mind when I started the company. My first 40 instruments two years ago were Juniors. I'd always wanted a Junior set up this way. I appreciate the, "classic" Juniors, but I always wanted a Junior with better intonation and a big ol' humbucker hard-mounted for High Voltage rock 'n roll...er, so to speak.
BTW, funny anecdote...when I was a kid and first saw AC/DC I thought Malcolm was playing some kind of Junior I'd never seen before. Even after I knew he was playing a Gretsch I still liked the idea of a Junior set up for that kind of ruckus. It stuck in my head and all these years later I present to you, the 2015 Junior G-Man!
Finally after 10 years i got my Gibson SG. I sold my Ibanez and bought one of the most powerful guitars in the world so now i can play AC/DC songs with the right tone. Shot with my Canon EOS 1000D with an EF-35mm f/2 lens.
Bigsby B5 Vibrato scavenged from broken early-70s SG Custom, still has gold plating on the bottom. Some guy in the basement at Mandolin Brothers installed it for me back in '98, but didn't plug the old tailpiece holes for some reason.
This guitar has a lot of miles on it. I've tried not to bang it around, so it's still pretty clean.
Now has hot Erick Coleman (United Lutherie, OH) pickups for more kick.
Epiphone sc 450 on the left, sc 350 on the right. The 450 has a set neck with a coil tap, maple body and neck, sperzel non locking tuners, and a velvet hammer p/u in the bridge position. The 350 is mahogany body with bolt on maple neck, planet waves autotrim tuners, DiMarzio p/u's and a tuneomatic bridge. The sc 350 is the newbie, I've had the 450 since 1992.
