Help me up with this Custom

Recommended Posts

Okay, so here it is a Custom Les Paul with a single P90. Looks cool, I bet it sound even better but I have never seen anything like it. I once had a single P90 Goldtop that was from the 90s I guess and it sounded fantastic but had a lot of issues so I had to sell it. What am I dealing with here?

 

#CS001558, 8.81 lbs, Antique Ebony, Weight-Relieved Mahogany Body, Carved Maple Top, Multi-ply Aged Binding, White Binding on Fingerboard, 1-Piece Mahogany Neck, 22 Fret Ebony Fingerboard, 12" Radius, Mother-of-Pearl Block Inlays, "C" Shape Neck Profile, Gold Hardware, Nashville Tune-O-Matic Bridge, Stopbar Tailpiece, 24.75" Scale Length, 1 11/16" Nut Width, Corian Nut, 1 P-90 Humbucking Pickup, 1 Volume, 1 Tone, Includes Custom Shop Case.

It's just a regular modern Custom but with one single P-90. That's really all there is to it. I agree that it looks really, REALLY cool but I wouldn't buy it. It's a novelty item. If I was looking to spend that much money on a P-90 Custom, I would buy the '54 Black Beauty. They cost around the same as that one (don't look at the gibson.com price) and even less if you shop around. You're not limited to just one pickup and the '54BB is historic - solid-body, long neck tenon, better wood. http://www2.gibson.com/Products/Electric-Guitars/Les-Paul/Gibson-Custom/1954-Les-Paul-Custom-VOS.aspx
