Does anyone know exactly how these compare to the '50s Les Pauls? I believe Slash (my favorite guitarist) plays '50s style LP's... wondering what I'd gain/lose if I went for a '60s style over a '50s one.
Also is the satin finish a good or bad thing compared to most LP's? Is this kind of a "budget" version?

Weird. I'm on mobile at it's working. 50s has a thicker neck. Satin is a cheaper finish than the nitro, but it's personal preference. I like both.
Watch some reviews. This can look pink and really dry — always better to see in person before buying online. Or at least find some real photos, not overly processed or studio lit.

The 50s necks are thicker than 60s. If you have smallish hands you might not find it enjoyable to play. I prefer nitro on a les paul as traditionally this is the finish they used. These guitars, being standards, will also weigh more than a reissue version as they save the lighter wood for those. Standards can weigh 10 lbs which is heavy for a guitar. Reissues are in the 8 lb range. But a vintage reissue 59 (R9) or 60 (R0) is $5500. Gibson recently released a Jessica Les Paul based on the guitar slash used on Appetite (which is not actually a gibson and was made by an independent luthier).
But for the money, for someone looking to get into a les paul, who likes the feel of a 60s neck, this is a great deal. I recommend going to a local store to try a 50s and 60s neck before buying.
Thanks OP.
I just came here to reminisce.
Looks identical to the one I owned (played).
Many decades ago.
Was a big fan of Ace Frehley, so for those who know, this is exactly what he played, down to the color.
My band teacher had a special educational supplier catalog, and let me order from it.
So I got it for around $400 new, if I recall correctly.
Dual pickups.
I understand that it's now worth around $15k.
Never got good enough to play like Ace, unfortunately.
Sold it a few years later.
Good times.

The biggest difference is the neck profile is slimmer on the 60's and the tuners are metal instead of plastic. If you have a guitar center nearby, go play both and see what neck profile you prefer, that's what I just did and I preferred the 60s model.
