Recommend or suggest: P90 Guitar Edition

stylesforfree · January 30

I have decided to get shut of my Epiphone casino, not digging the neck (too narrow/thin) so i'm looking for something with P90's.

A few pre-requisites:
Light body
Medium Jumbo frets
Rosewood or ebony fretboard (NOT MAPLE)
£1000 or less
Decent pickups (obviously)

I have a JV modified 60's fender tele that has a neck I dig a lot, so something similar to the thick Soft "V" maple neck and 9.5" radius fretboard, doesnt matter if its a touch bigger.

2nd hand or brand new I dont mind.

Edit: Already own an SG tribute so not really looking to get an SG special or Les Paul (plus the neck profile isn't what im looking for)

So no Gibsons unless its an absolute steal.

Yamaha Revstar springs to mind... jumbo frets and 12" radius though.

SG Special

Rivolta Combinata.

Best P90 guitar I’ve ever played or owned.

Fender TC-90 / JA-90 or a Squier Cabronita

SG Special

Forgot to mention I already own an SG tribute, also the SG has a 12" radius and the fretboard is pretty flat, so no go.

I have one. Its ace and has replaced a much more expensive Les Paul - owned for 14 years now.

As for a non-Gibson P90 equipped guitar - try a Fender Noventa series. IMHO, they were a bit odd but they sounded OK.

Buy this so I no longer need to keep looking at it. The one at GuitarGuitar is priced at £2199:
