Got one of these when they first released. Spot on review! It does everything a proper Junior should do. Fat neck, fat P90 tone, just pure rock n' roll! I did use a Lollar P90 shim to raise the pickup a little bit and found the sweet spot. Also got the 2020 Epiphone Special and that guitar is awesome as well. Now I just need Epiphone to make a double cutaway model!

Thanks for an excellent review! After watching a few reviews of this guitar, yours was the one that convinced me to buy one. My volume pot did not work like yours unfortunately, (Feb '21 model), but after countless guitar rewires and amp builds over the years I have come to the realisation that cts pot tapers are highly inconsistent, I replaced mine with a linear taper and it works through the whole range very nicely now, and whilst I was in there I pulled the cheapo brown .022 "greencap" and put in a nice juicy P.I.O. .033 cap and now it's perfect for my tone taste. I did change the bridge for a Wilkinson with adjustment just because I happened to have one spare, but it made it buzz and didn't feel as good under the hand so off with that and back to the stock bridge. The intonation with the stock bridge is perfect on mine anyway, and feels fine under the hand. I was pleasantly surprised to see that my example only has a 2 piece body joined in the middle under the veneers, nicely flat sawn, so great sound transference and very resonant. All in all I think they are a great value for $$ guitar that you don't need to be precious about and can really let go and hook in. The neck is better than the standard Epiphone D shape but still has a bit of D going on, I prefer the roundness of the Gibson version. How does this neck compare to the tv yellow Epi special neck? Thanks again my friend. Cheers from a happy new Epi Jnr. player. ;)

However, you can get shims, they're the same colour and profile as the P90 so not noticeable .I got a set and raised the P90 to the right height, there's an obvious increase in volume and a slight improvement tone.

Acoustic guitar background - love the feel of the wraparound bridge. I simply dropped the 2nd and 3rd string down to a thinner gauge and intonation is spot on. Replaced the machines with Grovers and may change the electronics. Aesthetically the pickguard and veneers don't appeal. A 3-4 piece body isn't a bad thing; the saved $ going sans pickguard and veneers may pay for better quality wood. As always, a thorough and entertaining review by Colin.

bought one of these and a TV special on a great deal. thought i would keep the one i like the most and resell the other..i still have both. just an FYI, you can by shims to raise the pick up for about $10 CAD. it is a very clean pick up and if you want some dirt, its just gotta be done..

If you want an idea for a shootout get an eastman SB59 VS Gibson les paul standard I think you will be shocked by how good the Eastman is for two thirds of the price of the les paul std.

Hey young man ..Help me on this one...Why do you and 99% of you tube reviewers mention every aspect of a guitar in great detail ..but..never mention the actual weight ?! .. it’s not like a hand scale is a big investment . 😎🎸

Cheers!... you may need to unsubscribe as I plan to keep rolling out guitars you are gonna need! :) The fixed wraparound bridge on old skool Juniors helps the tone on these things... whatever people may say about them they are killer and with added P90 it's pure rock n roll heaven! Thanks as usual for supporting the channel! :)
