This was a limited release in 2014 (about 300 units) as Gibson doesn't keep the P-90 pick-up + Bigsby combination in regular production. For that reason, as a P-90 fan, I had to grab this when it became available (I think I pre-ordered it). Be advised that this is an unarguably heavy at 11 lb, 3.9 oz. That aside, this is a beautiful guitar in the traditional goldtop finish with the chrome, Bigsby hardware (it also comes with a standard bridge if you want to switch the Bigsby out). The 60's neck is way more playable than the 50's for my taste.

Condition is near mint, with the only flaw I can find being a blemish on the bottom side. Includes everything: factory paperwork, Gibson hardshell case.
