If ever i had 2K laying around, this would be the time for me to use it - without fail !

Never even heard of an ES-195 before . . . but that thing SHOUTS Rock N Roll, in the same way AFD-era Izzy Stradlin shouted Rock N Roll :headbang:

Beside the Trini Lopez neck inlays and headstock, what's the difference? Those P94s are a poor sub for a true P90...

It has some features I like (Bigsby, inline headstock, cosmetics) but seeing as it has standard humbucking routs I'd toss in a matched set of 'buckers and rock 'til the cows come home. I'm NOT generally a fan of P90's or single coils in general. I'm weird that way.

Different to which model ?

Phil X likes the P94's

We really like Phil X he has the best attitude and an all around good outlook on most everything. Oh yeah , he can play his frikkin ass off. Not to mention he got to replace Rik Emmit in Triumph when he was a kid geez.
