In this trailer of the movie ("Heart Like A Hand Grenade")about the making of "American Idiot", we can see Billie Joe Armstrong playing some riffs on this guitar. He modified it a little bit: he removed one of the knobs and changed the original green tuning keys with another Gibson chrome tuning keys set.
In 2018, Mark Knopfler acquired a Gibson ES-135 P-100 (1991-2003) and experimented with it during the recording process to evaluate its sound and determine its potential fit in a song. However, this guitar was never featured on a record. Knopfler occasionally kept the ES-135 in his study for personal use at home, as documented in the source "Mark Knopfler and his guitars."
