Gibson USA for the guitar. 2 Micro P90 USA. 2 "pot" tone ". 2 volumes. A 3-position selector.
Channel "Slim" longer than the end of the 50's, type Les Paul Standard 60s.
5 finishes "classics" including The Goldtop (which I missed!)
Fund has rooms (internes!), is lighter and sounds change.
Beautiful antique finish with some signs of wear here and there.
Beautiful Vintage mechanical. The finish on mine is almost perfect. Rosewood fingerboard.

UTILIZATION

Handle very good although I have no reference Gibson. The handle slides well and is close to my sound, nothing to do with my Fender Stratocaster. Compromise that I find ideal.
the potentiometer respond well, she has all the characteristics of the Les Paul and is a real plus!

SOUNDS

So there ... but happiness!
The sound on my little CHAMPION 600 are delightful!
The bass are hot and bold, midrange and treble are jazzy flapping drool just right.
The crunch sounds are favored on the bass and clean mids and the treble.
Sounds Blues, Rock, Blues rock to old are super effective.
PS: unlike the first review, and although the forum mentioned his concerns with microphones, I have very little noise (better cable?)

OVERALL OPINION

I've had 10 days and finally I found the sound I was looking for and the compromise of ideal playability. All at a reasonable price.
For the comfort of game it is very subjective, I am always delighted with my Stratocaster Classic Player 60's but the two are so complementary.
For the character and this must be due to both the Les Paul in its P90, I much prefer the Les Paul.
This anachronism (Studio LP released in 1983 with P90 used in 1957) is my best and shovel away.
And at this price (I also have a very good Epiphone ES 335 BB King), it ranks far above in terms of finish Epiphone and many other more expensive Gibson Les Paul)
It is already a collector (I think), so much so that I just ordered 50'S in Goldtop with Humbuckers.
