Canny.
If I was to ever splash out on one it wouldn't be a HP - G-force one though, it'd be a proper one with a nice nylon nut and banjo tuners. Oh and a Maestro trem of course.

Do Gibson still do the single pick up ones? They look hellish.

I'd assume so but it depends what's in their catalogue from year to year.
A quick glance at their website suggests they're not currently in production.
Epiphone do Joe Bonamassa signature model.

Thing is, with the single pickup version, you'd miss out on that lush tone you can get from the neck on a Firebird.
To hoy sticks at it? Awful looking thing.
Ugly....price and aesthetically. I just don't like those style PRS guitars. I see that Gibson are tapping into the PRS market with the modern double cut monstrosity that they have issued.

Seen them. Hideous looking things
Don't mind the look, it's the price that's a pisstake. 11k on a strat imitatation

More Les Paul than Strat like.
I think there's actually some really bonny ones, but that one there's awful.
How bizarre. The proper double cutaway Les Paul has been around for donkeys like. Always had a little soft spot for them. I don't like that thing you've posted though.

I nearly bought an old DC but the guy who was selling it had taken the good pick ups out of it and put some really cheap shite in place of them....he was also trying to get top dollar! Which it clearly wasn't worth. I always liked the look of the ones with the P90's in them.

£113 including postage. Probably another £60 for a nice set of pickups.
