"2014 Gibson Custom lite ( Vintage Burst )"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Gibson brought back the "Lite" during 2013 and 2014 with a variety of style/colors and pricing. This one is the most expensive to date. These guitars just soak in Twang and I can hear many - no kidding, many country hits coming form these guitars. ( I now have three. I like the unique set-up of the 490R 490RT pick-ups and the ability to be closer to the string action with the curved body and of course they are lighter in weight. Gibson is ALWAYS a good buy value. I would be re-miss not to express my THANK YOU to Zzounds Music. This Company knows how to ship a guitar. Some others could learn from them, and they ARE THE MOST TIMELY...
