A '60 Special is a double-cut, by the way - they changed in very late '58. Unless Gibson have decided to rewrite history.

Conventional wisdom is that the Junior is a better guitar for balls-out rock - something about the lack of a neck pickup not exerting a magnetic pull on the strings.
As ever, though, generalisations don't account for individual guitars - I've played Juniors that were a bit meh and Specials that were searing on the bridge pickup.
I love the concept of the Junior, but I personally prefer the versatility of a good Special.
