The definitive list of hollow body guitars with P90 Pickups

[blille]

I was looking for something like this but didn't find it so I thought I'd start it.

This list is my top of mind so please add to it and let me know what I got wrong. I'll keep updating this post with your feedback.

Both pre-1957

Gibson ES-225TD. Kind of the perfect electric guitar for blues or soul jazz.

And the post-War ES-150.

I-30LC

[mad dog]

Guild CE-100 in the 50s, one and two p/u models
Guild X-50 up til '63 or so

[Phil59]

Didn't the Gibson ES-135 come with one or two P-90s either originally or early?

[Greentone]

Two

[omphalopsychos]

The original 135 came with one. It was a 125 with neck binding, les Paul inlays, and a 5 ply pickguard.

[wmachine]

I believe the Gibson ES-175 should be "until 57"?

Counting reissues, we have the 2015 '54 ES-175D reissue:

[blille]

Very cool, thanks everybody, I just updated it!

I can't believe I forgot about the Guild T100.

[rabbit]

Call me "Woody!"

Mmmm-mmmm, love them P-90's.

Thanks for a fine thread, y'all.

[Alter]

Note to myself, add that to the list of guitar types I don't have Gotta change that sometime soon

[GNAPPI]

Why is it nobody thought of this thread before? :-)

Here's a few I think you can add to the list:

Eastman AR405, Loar LH-279, Epiphone Century, D'Angelico EX-59

Added, thanks!

I also added a couple more Guilds and the D'A Deluxe 59.



I was thinking that it's surprising there are no Grecos, Arias, Tokais, Venturas or any other wonderful Japanese guitar from the "lawsuit" era on the list. Were there any hollowbodies with P-90?

Matsumoku didn't like the ES-330 or the Casino?

[Tom Karol]

Godin used to make a variation of the Montreal Premiere with P90s, but it looks like they no longer do.

[2bornot2bop]

Custom Heritage 555 (hollow-body)

[wintermoon]

Gibson

L-5 CES
Super 400 CES

Both pre-1957

Just a note, L-5's and Super 400's had P-90s for about 3 yrs, '51-'54

Then about 3 yrs w Alnico V staple pu's to late '57 when paf humbuckers were introduced.

[TOMMO]

Gibson ES 135 (different guitar from the original model) from 1992 until they changed to humbuckers. Yes - they were in fact P100s (stacked coil humbucker) but easily changed to P 90s. Not sure if a routed hollow mahogany body would qualify but if so: Epiphone WildKat.
