I love me a two P90 & Bigsby Goldtop. Had the Epi '56 Goldtop for awhile. Liked it but replaced it with a real Gibson TV Yellow LP Special DC.

A goldtop with P-90's would be the Gibson LP for me...although l'd prefer a MIJ Tokai LP with Kinman P-90's.

You guys are pushing me. After a hundred years of playing a strat, and two years ago, switching to gretsch's, I finally dipped my toes in the wide neck gibson waters. I found some Sg's with 60's necks that i am leaning towards, and trying to acquire. But, the mother of them all, i still haven't played one that feels comfortable. thick necks and all. But, i admit, they sustain, and have a very full sound. so, keep posting them, and maybe in another few years, i might make the stretch, literally, to a LP.

Goldtops from all decades and cherry sunburst, and I also have McCarty PRS's in the same colors.

When I first saw Roy Orbison playing a black Gibson, I fell in love with it.
When I first saw George Harrison playing (what I thought was) a black Gretsch, i fell in love with THAT!

Then I saw a White Falcon... WOW!

Yep, it's neat. She's actually a Les Paul Faded Doublecut, like a Jr. but different. She's also for sale. Great guitar but we didn't bond with each other. I also have the original tailpiece and the hardshell case for her.
