Justice Jr

Post by Corbin Pratt »

I have been looking for another steel I can travel with and take to rehearsals when I don't want to haul my Show Pro around. A Justice Jr 3x3 just popped up locally for sale for a pretty low price. Are these "pro" level guitars? Or are these more like a Carter Starter/Stage One? I can't find much info on them. I appreciate it!

Hey Corbin...Justice steel guitars are high quality and it would serve you well. Ron Anderson is still building them, and he's awesome to deal with. I've had my Justice S10 3x4 for almost two years now, and it sounds really sweet and plays like butter.If you can get one at a good price, I wouldn't hesitate picking it up. Good luck!

I'm not sure the Justice Jr is a pro guitar. I have 2 Justice Judge SD 10s and they are top notch. The Pro lite model is nice too but a Jr I haven't seen. I suggest you call Ron and ask about it.

The older model S 10 juniors were double raise single lower. The newer models are triple raise triple lower. They are built simply with a few cosmetic corners cut to save labor costs, but very well. I had one for quite a while and it played smoothly and stayed in tune. Don’t forget that the ShoBuds with double raise single lower were good enough for Lloyd Green.
