This plays itself. It is sooo nice. Look great. There is nothing to not like.

If you want p90's get the 50's heritage. I think the 60's one has humbuckers for not too much more. I believe that is the main difference. Its a lot to pay for a guitar but the quality is so great and the sustain and fret action is incredible. This is by far the nicest guitar I have ever played other than a buddies Les Paul. This is really a lot like the Les Paul but lighter (and of course has the double cutaway "horns". I think the differences are minor in terms of sound and playability.

I bought an SG Classic with P90's years ago, and love that one as well. There's just something about P90's that get to me. They can be so pretty and clean if you want them to be, but then rock so much, if that's what you're in the mood for. Also, this one has 24 frets, so you have the slightly extra fret range, but with the same pickup location on the guitar as the Classic. But more importantly, these pickups are wound with reverse pole-reverse polarity, so that when you have both pickups turned to the same volume, they are hum-cancelling and quiet.
This is my second SG with P90's.
I also have 2 Les Pauls with them as well.
P90's Rock!

Between SGJ and SG Standard

This guitar has been a pleasant surprise. So many people dismissed it without even playing one that I didn't know what to think from online "reviews." But it is truly a great guitar for SG players. Both the body and neck on mine are quartersawn mahogany. The finish is a silky, beautiful gloss. It is not as thick a finish as the high end model, and there is more grain texture. However, the grain is sealed, and overall it is a very quality feel to the finish. It is, after all, nitocellulose lacquer, and oh, yea, you can feel the difference. Silk. A living finish as opposed to the plastic slathered on most guitars. The neck profile is the 50s round, so it fills your hand without being a "baseball bat."

The neck is smooth as well. The fretwork is quite good, though a bit more "sharp" (pronounced, really, not China-made cheapo sharp) at the ends than a high end model would be. Frets are well set, level and there is no buzz. Setup out of the box was quite good, with low-ish action. Not shredding low but playing blues low. Intonation spot on. The Grover tuners on mine work smoothly, and tuning stability was good once the strings were broken in. Came with 9s, Gibson brightwires. Nut is not too high, no binding. Corian. I'd say the tone and volume are about the same as on my SGJ: they work very well but have some friction to them.

Now, the P-90s are everything you expect, if you expect a LOT. Gibson USA P-90s are rightly considered the standard by which others are judged, and these newer ones live up to the hype. Tone is a subjective thing, but if it's P-90 growl you're looking for, you will not be disappointed. Having checked out the new SGs I'd say this one slots in quite well between the SGJ (which is a huge value, btw) and the Standard. If you can get one priced in between those you'll be doing well. Gibson USA is making some very nice guitars these days. I've bought two of the recent models so I have some basis for that opinion. If you can get one of these "50s Tribute Sgs" -- and you get the humor behind that name, by all means do so. All mahogany, PLEKd board and P-90s, yeah.

U would think the frets would be dressed a little better! Awesome sound. Clean and clear.
