Got lucky and was sent to the home office the same week as the show!! Im guessing not many members here had a chance to go, so I took pics. The show was sponsored by Fender... so I didnt expect the plethora of Gibbys Id find, but here we go:

And all that JAZZ! During my earlier love affair with pointy guitars I was advised by an elderly man that I needed to forget that noise and find "The biggest fattest guitar I can fit under my arm, and learn to play it!" At the time, I didnt appreciate the advice... I hear him now though...

Can anyone identify that neck pickup? It doesnt look like the P90s in MY LP Special...

Request to Mods

Can someone please move this to Travel where I MEANT to put it? Id double post, or depublish, or Im not really cool with either option. If its a pain for you guys to do it let me know, I clean up my own mess.

Otherwise, my apologies for teh whole tihng.

I searched the Gibson website and didn't find that pickup listed. It looks like a custom hot-rodded double-coil; perhaps something new?

I found elsewhere that its supposed to be a vintage styled P90... still checking into it.
