Listen to Tony Iommi’s Pickups on My Custom Les Paul Junior Double Cutaway

The Ultimate Rock Weapon: Custom Les Paul Junior Double Cutaway with Tony Iommi Pickups

Recently I made a bunch of short videos using my old Green Junior. They are hosted on Tiktok and Youtube.

This guitar has been with me for years and has undergone many changes and modifications. I’ve reviewed it twice already, once when I built it and again when I changed the electronics to Tony Iommi pickups and an Artec BCU onboard booster.

You can read those articles by following the links below.

You can get the schematic if you want to build it for yourself.

I made five short videos, improvising blues, and rock licks showcasing this guitar’s versatility. The sound was truly amazing – warm and full, with a rich and powerful tone that begs to be played.

Here are two of them:
