I recently bought this 2008 (white) Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Jr. It was in bad shape/yellowing over time with tons of dings and was also gutted of all electronics. I stripped it down, repainted it in the spirit of BJA's flag guitar and had fun bringing it back to life. Enjoy!

By any chance does anyone have any photos of Tom playing this Yellow Sub Sonic Strat live for Adam's Song on the Pop Punk Disaster tour? A picture would have more than likely be taken on a disposable camera from the pit if so, so not as easy to get ahold of. Anyone remember seeing this live?

Tom's old Custom Shop Sub Sonic from the early 2000's that he used for Adam's Song on tour. I am fortunate enough to have friends like Brian W. who recently owned this and also gave me a chance at being its caretaker. It is a great guitar and gets played every week. Still sounds phenomenal too.

Got my guitar back today with a stronger neck and she's all cleaned up! When I received it from Martin, he told me the neck was cracking & his tech at the time did a quick repair on it (which gave that milky finish look). Over time it wore down again so I took it in for a reinforced repair. Enjoy!

Always gotta love Tom's Seafoam Green Strat's. I believe this was one of the guitars he may have sold on Reissued or Delegacy on To The Stars... in 2015 or so. Anyone on here the owner of this one? I'm wondering if the Invader pickup installed was a Bridge or a Neck pickup.
