When the original Les Paul evolved into the Les Paul/SG Standard in 1961, the transition embodied Les Paul's vision for a sleek, powerful, contemporary solid-body electric guitar. The distinctive double-cutaway guitar--now simply known as the SG--was an overnight success, and became a major rock and blues icon by the late '60s. The SG Standard P90 T embodies all the feel and look of the original rendition of this legendary guitar, all wrapped into a design that remains one of the most versatile guitars available today.

I was looking for an SG that I can use as my "workhorse" guitar. I love P90s, and Gibson still makes one of the finest P90s on the planet, with great detailed midrange, sweet highs, and tight low end. I was instantly pleased when I opened the bag (which is a sad choice for protection, but makes great guitars affordable), and the rich color is gorgeous. The guitar unplugged has a loud, chiming acoustic sound, and the chimey, 3 dimensional quality carries on when you plug it in. The finish is perfect, and the bridge, tailpiece, and tuners do their job perfectly. The only issue with this instrument, is the fact that single coil pickups hum. I don't see it as a problem. It's the nature of the beast. Don't hesitate to buy this guitar.
