    That’s a beauty. I’ve never seen a gold top with a cherry back. Nice.

    I’m a Tonepros fan. I put a tone pros bridge and studs on my Goldtop and my Coronet. They ring like bells.

    Yeah, my go-tos are tone-pros and creamtone. Creamtone for the “vintage correct” type stuff and tone-pros for the “high performance”

    Once you get used to locking stop bar studs it’s hard to go back.

    I know. I really don’t have the need or the budget for another guitar but I’m really digging the Goldtop Les Paul and I don’t have a guitar with P90’s. This thread is not helping my GAS problem.

    Everybody needs one P90 guitar. They really are a thing apart.

    I’m smack-dab in the middle of redoing our back garden so odds are I’m safe because I don’t have time to find a Goldtop with P90’s but you’re absolutely right. I think they look just gorgeous too. I really took a liking to them when I was following the massive Les Paul build thread by @preeb. It was the Goldtop chapters that really hooked me a 1954 with P90’s: http://www.tdpri.com/threads/1959-les-paul-build.194271/page-337#post-5123122

    Sean Costello and Freddie King are the reason I fell for them.

    Sean in particular.
