Billie Joe Armstrong Signature Gibson J-180 Acoustic

By Jimmy /Oct. 31, 2010 / Comments
Recently, Gibson released the Billie Joe Armstrong Signature J-180 Acoustic. This is the guitar that Billie Joe used for his acoustic encore at the end of each show of the '21st Century Breakdown tour'.

The guitar is a bit pricey at $3,784 USD, but there has only been 100 made for 2010 so if you are interested act fast because these are sure to sell out soon.

Complete details and specs can be found on Gibson.com by clicking here.

This is not the first signature guitar that Gibson has done for Billie Joe. In 2006 Gibson released the Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Jr aka "Floyd". More information on this guitar can be found by clicking here.
