Lussda Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Just got this a few days ago. Loving the P90s and the AA Figured Maple Top. The finish is a limited Edition Orange Sunburst (exclusively Canadian). Anyone else own the 2018 Classic Player Plus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerad12 Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 That's a slick guitar you got yourself. That finish is very cool. Congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pippy Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 That really is Beautiful! Congrats! Richlite 'boards are great. The aged amber switch-tip is sweet, too (the LPCPP currently advertised on the L&McQ site has a black 'tip). Good that Gibson have supplied a Multi-ply 'guard ("To Fit; or Not To Fit? That is the Question..."). If it were mine (and needing a 'guard) I'd be tempted to source a single-ply black 'guard... Play Long and in Good Health! Pip.

I certainly don't notice any difference (I have a few other rosewood and ebony Gibsons). She came with a black switch, I swapped the tip to the aged-amber, something I do on all my full body Gibsons. I am still debating about the guard. For now going to enjoy the guitar in its current state but would also consider white pickup covers and gold knobs later on down the road, something like this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pippy Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 ......I......would also consider white pickup covers and gold knobs later on down the road, something like this... Without wishing to derail the thread about your gorgeous guitar too far; What can I say other than "You are Preaching to the Converted". Here is the '87 P-90 HCSB you posted compared with my own '95 R0. The R0 now has Gold Hat-Box knobs, too, in place of the mirrors she wears here... I still like the Black Look but the Creme Plastics definitely make it look more Vintage-Style. Pip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonard McCoy Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 What a rad guitar! I'm thinking about getting a P90-featured Les Paul myself (ideally a Goldtop), but alas the choice is extremely limited right now, even more so for lefties like me.
