It looks like a great guitar. I love P-90s and mahogany.
Just a thought though, as far as Les Pauls go this is far from typical. Sure, they originally had P-90s so that's not the issue. But the double cutaway like that and lacking individual controls - it just seems like a different guitar. An awesome guitar for sure, but if I wanted to move to a Les Paul this is probably not the guitar I would pick.
Looks great to me. I love Gibsons with P90s and whilst I agree with Pythagoras that it's not for purists, it'll be a great guitar.
