This is like Thomann where you buy it online & hope it arrives Perfect at the other End!
The Drama I went to get this 2nd one is mind boggling, Out of 30 + Guitars this is the only one they could find without damage under the Scratchplate.
It was $449 AU including shipping , They are discontinuing this model & I told them I 'm not surprised calling it a Gold Top, it looks like an Copper Orange Top!!!
It has Good Bones, It has P90's that they call stacked but it has push pull on the Volume controls which cancel the Hum when lifted up.
They even went to the trouble of putting the fret nib binding on the Neck binding.
It has a Roller bridge Which I think is a bonus!
Locking Tuners!!!
A Scarf joint at the Headstock & 2 way truss rod with a Allen key adjustment nut so a lot more wood than the crappy Gibson design!
The finish is 98% perfect but I have seen Gibsons that don't come even close.
Typically, the Tone pots are the wrong taper for us lefty's but are cheap enough to replace, standard 16mm pots for a China made Guitar.
It has so much shine, it's impossible to take photo's that show the true look!

Her's a Photo they sent as I refused to accept one with Chips and dents from Scratchplate removed from floating centre screw
There are no scratches, it's all reflections!:
