The Sound and Feel of Blackberry Smoke, Right in Your Hands – The Gibson Charlie Starr LP JR Signature Electric Guitar in Ebony
Charlie Starr from Blackberry Smoke often uses a Les Paul™ Junior for studio recordings and live performances. Throughout his career, his affinity for the Les Paul Junior has contributed to his signature guitar tone and playing style, adding to the band’s unique sound. The Gibson Charlie Starr Les Paul Junior authentically reproduces Charlie’s go-to Junior. It features a mahogany neck with a 50s neck profile that was digitally scanned and replicated from Charlie’s favorite Les Paul Junior, a custom-designed overwound P-90 pickup, and an adjustable Wraparound bridge with locking studs. It comes packed in a Historic Les Paul Junior “Gator Skin” hardshell case and includes a Charlie Starr Signature Ceramic Slide and Hey Ya’ll sticker, complete with Charlie’s original misspelling. Available in Dark Walnut and Ebony, only 250 will be made in each color.
