Has anyone had any experience with these? I'm trying to figure out what the major difference between this and the Standard T is? (not the standard HP)
As I think I'm finally going to pick up a goldtop as I'm putting my plans of buying a custom on hold for the time being so I'd appreciate any info/experiences on the Classic T or whether a standard is a better choice.
Thanks!

its a full fat Les Paul. With the old style standard weight relief of a
few holes.
The neck spec is the modern slim taper which is asymmetrical & beefier on the lower string end.
The pickups were the weak link to me. I found my example quite a naturally bright & resonant guitar. At high gain, the 57 Classic + was a bit screechy in the top end. So I had Lollar Imperials put in.
i thought the fit & finish on new Gibsons to be a big improvement on 15 years ago when I got my first SG. However the set up out of the box was mediocre. So it went to my local tech for fettling.
I didnt like the lack of a poker poker chip on the pickup selector switch so got one on EBay.
