Just pre-ordered the new Epiphone Gary Clark Jr. signature Blak and Blu Casino. I can't wait to play this thing.

That's pretty cool. P90s are super versatile and the Bigsby's are so much fun. Make sure to get some lubrication for the nut and saddles. It will help it stay in tune quite a bit.

Nice! Congrats!

Thanks Dewie. Yeah this is my first p90 and first hollow bodied guitar. Right now I have a mexi start, an epiphone gold top and an epiphone acoustic. Looking forward to adding some versatility to my arsenal.

I'm not sure why they make any other pick up... The P90 is always heaven to me!

i like the paf sound a lot too. 1959 les pauls sounded great

Nice!! I just picked up a Gretsch Electromatic not too long ago after playing my Strat for years. Hollow bodies are a blast! Enjoy!

Random reply to above posts:

You said "lube"
Epiphone gets a bad rap, they had some bad years but the stuff they put out now and in the mid to late 90s are super solid
That blue Clark Casino looks sick, and the Bigsby is awesome.
I may be a bit biased as I have a 97 Sheraton 2 that I bought used that someone put 57 Classic pickups in....its a beast.

If only they were in a different color other then the "Gold top". I know, I know, I'm one of the few that don't care for it.

Gibson had three color choices in 1959: the Custom in black, the Goldtop, and the Standard in burst finish. When most people think of the 1958-60 Les Paul, they think of the burst finish models. The Goldtop was more famous from 1952 to 1957. The 1959 Les Paul is usually considered to be the holy grail, with the PAF pickups and the burst finish.

I like Mike Mccready's honey burst 59. Its amazing,

Summer project!

yeah, semi hollows are cool, and that airy quality mixed with a Bigsby is one of the greatest combos in all of the guitar universe.

I completely agree.

I imagined it would be bluer....But I like it, love to be able to see some grain through the blue finish.
