Ok, tough choice you are making Mate!

 

I like the Gold Top Trad because the vintage cosmetics and 57 classics do it for me.

 

However on the hand of the Standard, I like the fact that it has the 60's neck profile, the standard in my opinion would be more suited for a gigging player for it's working mans specs.

 

Final decision for me would be that I would go with the GOLD TOP TRADITIONAL.

 

Even though the TRAD 50's neck profile is not my thing, I would take the trad anyday.

 

Good Luck.

Well R9...I have played both..and for the love of me I can't pick a winner

 

It's like..aahh I love that '60s neck.

 

then ooohhh...the solid Trad sounds a wee bit better

 

then...BUT MOM...the Standard is LIGHTER...( ](*,) )

 

which is why I put this up here

 

as far as pickups are concerned..the '57 classics beat the crap out of any pickup

 

it's just heavy solidbody and sound...against light chambered with a great neck

 

Kineman...I don't know mate..they both are pretty sweet...thanks anyways [thumbup]
