Sweetwater Minute - Vol. 87, Gibson '60s Tributes

@Inverted314 No need to look any further! Gibson is producing an SG Standard with P90 pickups!

Mitch, at the point in the video when you demonstrate the white LP, what is the color of the LP right behind you? It looks different in the video than in the photos I've seen. I need that one in my life! :)

Nice video. Make one with the PRS studio and a Blackstar head.

@shango02005 I know you posted this long ago, but that is the HoneyBurst. that's the color I got, it's a great guitar for the price.

Nothing like the sound of P90's ....they were std equipment on my '96 Hamer Special

That Les Paul played through the Marshall sounded more Led Zeppelin-ish than the Les Pauls with humbuckers :O All in all, I believe that Gibson could have named this series our regular models with P-90s instead of coming up with a fancy name like '60s Tribute..

Man I want that SG "Natural" in LEFTY. It looks and sounds fantastic, but Gibson is killing me here, an extra $200 for Lefty!? I could see maybe $50, but come on Gibson, $200!? that is absurd.

@KongsvingerKongen For an extra $200 I might as well get a SG Standard with hardshell case. Now that I think about it; I guess that's probably the way to go anyways unless you really want P90s. I mostly just like the "natural" finish as Gibson never gives the SG any interesting finishes unless you spend lots of money.

you know any guitar can sound nice when over driven. How about someone plays these guitars clean for a change, tired of endless distortion of the amplified sound. Some reviews even clamito be "clean" but in fact you can hear reverb, dely and or a bit of chorus.
Come on Sweetwater Sound, lets have a proper review of what this guitar can do?
ps = you didn't even mention or show, us the type of caps or wiring, what hardware does it have? swtich craft? are they Kluson tuners? Crap review
