Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Gold-finished and built as a right-handed solidbody, the Les Paul Standard '50s P-90 uses a mahogany body with a maple top and a rounded '50s-style mahogany neck. Its two P-90 single-coil pickups occupy the neck and bridge positions, selected individually or together from the three-way switch. Handwired electronics, two volume controls, and two tone controls put the pickup balance and tone settings on the instrument. The fixed ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic and stopbar layout is matched with a hardshell case.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players who want neck, bridge, or combined P-90 pickup selections from a three-way switch.
- Guitarists who prefer a rounded '50s-style neck with 22 medium-jumbo frets.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Left-handed players; the listed orientation is right handed.
