Kelloggsy Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 (edited) Hi Guys, The recent Les Paul P90s are only out recently. There are the two designs: Single and Double cutaway. The Double cutaway costs a bit more. I am new in purchasing a Gibson, can anyone give me a pointer of whether I should get the Single or Double cutaway? Is there any tonal difference whatsoever aside from purely design purposes?

Dub-T-123 Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Theoretically the single cut version should sound slightly “better” because the neck has more contact with the body and the pickups are further apart They should sound more or less the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eracer_Team Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Some players think upper fret access of the 6th string "over the top" is a huge advantage for the double cut I have yet to see players playing 6th string on thier thumb above 12th feet.

Kelloggsy Posted October 20, 2020 Author Share Posted October 20, 2020 Any reason for the additional 2 knobs in the single cut? Sorry I’m new to Gibson! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
