Congrats to the purchase (??). Sorry for my late reply here, been out travelling with work for a couple of weeks.
I have a Vintage V100 Lemondrop and I really like it. I use it in the studio quite a lot, especially for crunch sounds and some lead work. Just make sure you'll be able to use the coil taps on the neck, it's one of the most usable sounds on mine.
Mine is loaded with HDs and I feel they are perfect for it, although a lower output set of pups would suit it very well too as you said before. The Lemondrop (at least mine) has this nice vintage sounding tone, it doesn't have that high end bite that some Les Pauls have. I can't complain since my PRS does those sorts of sounds anyway, and the V100 complements that. The neck is thin on it too, I bet it's the same neck as the other V100s.
The only bad thing about it is that the frets seems to be a little soft. I'm quite hard on my frets, and after two years I see some wear. It's not really bad, but it might need a fret dress in a year or two. I plan on refretting it after some time with jumbo stainless frets.
The Lemondrop is a fantastic guitar, it covers my LP tones nicely. I have no plans on selling it replacing it with a Gibson, I just don't see the need for it.
Let us know how it will work with the BKPs you choose!
