$399 is a good price, methinks.

Oh No Mr. Bill I feel GAS pangs coming on

That's a nice guitar.

Too bad the deal doesn't include the Gold Top version.

I might consider it but I really like the Agile AL 3000 or 3100 gold tops with full sized covered alnico 5 humbuckers. Nothing against P90's, I have a couple guitars with them and like them a lot.

I recently got an Agile AL 3100 double bound flammed cherry sunburst LP guitar and think it is a superior guitar stock, in terms of feel (has a big deep neck), look, and quality, plus the sound is really great stock and I see no need to change pickups.

If I was getting a P90 LP type guitar I would look at this Epi and then consider the Agile version, if available.

I also like to have one of the P90's RWRP in order that the middle combined pickup switch position is hum cancelling. I like this quiet option. One of my P90 guitars has the noise cancelling in the middle position and I find it very worth while to have that quiet option available when I want a quiet sound. Plus the P90s on both guitars can chime sweetly or roar like a fired up Lion.

I like to see deals like these offered and made known to us. I could easily live with the black version of this guitar if I wanted a guitar of this type and this is definitely a great price at 100 US off.
