Bought this beauty from a friend a couple of days ago. It was originally a single pickup (neck only). When he bought it someone had replaced the original P-90 with a P-100, perhaps due to buzz or hum issues.

The original pickup was in the case, and, being a skilled luthier, he sourced some '60's pots, a Gibson spacer to raise the P-90 and a period-correct ES-335 pickguard, which I think looks great, and converted it into a very usable guitar.

This thing goes from Grant Green to Malcolm Young...love it!!!
