I keep getting tempted to buy the Epiphone Les Paul Special p90 version because it's 130 and every chance they get it's 90 bucks and I like how it sounds, but it's always a time I shouldn't. Searching for it I found this and my goodness. The blue would be so sexy with pup matching knobs...I hate them speed knobs oh so much. Everything else though, my goodness.
Cheesy demo

at first i thought these looked too weird, but the solid colors are right nice. the speed knobs have got to go, though.

Yeah fuck dem knobs. Woof! Those knobs from a Dr. Z amp would be choice. As for the colors the solid are the only ones I dig as well. Why do sooo many burst and subtlety different? That blue or wine. Mmmmm

white or cream pointer knobs like a Vox or Laney amp.

i like both the blue and wine red.
i'm not crazy about where the selector is located nor the fact that it only has 1 vol/1 tone...but it seems that these have easy access to the electronics via the back, so that could be addressed..if so inclined.
i'd like to play one to see if the flat top is weird (for me).
i think it's a kool guitar for gibson to put out there.

At first glance, I couldn't figure out why they looked so weird. Flat top.
Also, I can't stand when the pickup toggle is behind the knobs.
And I'd like a pickguard.
Imma just be grump about this guitar, I guess.
