• Guys, we've spent considerable money converting the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and we have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!

Are these original P90's?

I have a 2004 Les Paul Classic Double Cutaway gold top and just looked at the pickups during a string change (see pics). I couldn't find any markings on them, just the gold colored backs with a slight crease through the middle (like a roof).
Are these the original P90’s or do you think they’re aftermarket?
Thanks for your help.IMG_2469.jpgIMG_2470.jpgIMG_2471.jpg

If it were mine I’d put a set of ThroBak’s in there!

Thanks for the feedback. Do you know anything about them ie are they meant to sound vintage? What was Gibson up to back in 2004?
