Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong has unveiled a new limited-edition Epiphone guitar and his first signature amplifier with Marshall.

The Epiphone Billie Joe Armstrong Les Paul Junior features a bright red finish, a mahogany body and neck, a rosewood fretboard and a single P-90 PRO pickup. It comes with a custom black hardshell case that has a leopard-print interior and is priced at £489 in the UK.

The guitar is available through authorised Epiphone retailers, Gibson Garage stores in London and Nashville, and the Epiphone website.

“I’m so overjoyed to have my own signature Marshall amp,” Armstrong said. “These amps have been a part of my musical life, from my heroes down to little old me. Turn it the fuck up!”
