A few days ago on Instagram Billie Joe introduced the world to his new guitar named "Buddy". Buddy is a back up for his famous guitar Blue, which he's had since he was 10 years old. On previous tours, Billie used a custom Fender Telecaster as a back up, even giving some away.

Buddy is actually the signature guitar for blues legend, Buddy Guy. Billie has made his own modifications to the guitar by adding a Seymour Duncan pick up, a new pick guard, and adding his own stickers, most of which are from 90's punk bands.

I'll be the first to say that I am quite excited to see Buddy played on tour along with Blue!
