I've recently bought a 61' SG,335 VS and last night a faded g400 SG and they all are fantastic value
as long as you DON'T look at the headstock.
Having got that out of the way, this looks very good indeed - it even has an ebony board, which, I think, Gibson USA still can't manage.
Another new guitar/divorce.
Decisions,decisions.
I changed out the EMG's for single coil pickups and I like it a lot.
Exhibit A - this CS Gibson R5.

I suspect gibson purposely dont allow it to be more authentic, it wouldn't be more expensive to do it properly. the end result is still a nice looking guitar so it doesn't really bother me
