Made in United States
bridge and tailpiece Tune-O-Matic - Stopbar

slim sleeve type 60
22 frets
p-90 pickups
2 volumes, 2 tones

the woods are beautiful (to the eye anyway)
the settings are the original nickel
the hardware is quality
and electronics.

I note that the "room" is not so great that I see it reeks on some forum. We see clearly the back that the body is in 2 parts, one part is 2 / 3 of the body and is full (well, less electronics), the room is in the last third is usually where the hearing in F ( as an example .... Fender Thinline) For me realize that I tap the body with my nail and I can not hear or penne is the cavity.

Every time, the welds are not beautiful and
nitro varnish / faded extremely fragile and not hit very well finished in the blanks (unlike my Start or my Hagstrom), but the frets are impeccable
Finally, if it is cheap compared to other gibson is because the minimum finish, no binding on the body or on the handle, no gloss, no inlay on the head ....

quality finish but roots .... which explains its price .. I want to say "no scam for so ..."

UTILIZATION

The handle is excellent but like I said, the settings are good so it makes sense that I find comfort handle well ... He is thin and short (yes this is my first so I Gibs compare this to my Fender Start).

It is light, so it's easier to have borne the angles brittle.
but a chamfer stomach would have been nice ...

access is acute is worse than stratum (or a different form me can be destabilizing ...) but sufficient for my game

SOUNDS

His side .... bha I wanted p-90 limited edition so this is timely for my purse ...

I play mostly reggae, rock "classic" or the blues.
These microphones are ideal for registry because it requires or the clean or overdrive.

So with regard to the amp, you need lights ... because I had the opportunity to play on a transo (a very decent h & k 60 blue edition that captures honor my strat yet) and the unique sound of p-90 is completely obscured ... settings can be ... brief .... 15w lamp on my store ;-) it's all good, it's very terrible, for where the tone controls on guitars are questionable (not very effective on mid-range guitars I've had in the hands so far all brands, it eats too much treble), here we sculpt his sound without losing quality, and finally a scratch where I can use the tones! one passes easily from the Jazz to a crunch sound / solid hit with nothing more than the knobs .... I'm a fan!

* A little less even when the background noise of microphone ...

OVERALL OPINION

This is a great guitar.

In the same price range and in the same spirit (I speak but no sound economic principle) Fender Stratocaster classic player offers the 60 (I own too). Gibs here is less flashy but it seems to be of higher quality. the woods are more beautiful on the gibs and the electronics are well above the original settings are perfect on the gibs and a real calamity on the Start ... that said I love the sound and comfort (now set for my taste) of the Start ... I had the two guitars!

I'm a fan of the stratum .... but I must admit that this cost for the same price Gibs is better! She no fault of the lens slightly
