"Gibson Dove *Totally Awesome*"

Feature:
The guitar came with everything it needed to make a beautiful tone, the only thing I changed was the strings to my favorite ones.

Quality:
Its a Gibson it is the best quality in a guitar.

Value:
This guitar is a steal for this price with the tone, quality, and with how much I use it, I would have payed more, its worth every penny.

Desirability:
I would say the pickguard is the main beauty for this guitar, but when you see the guitar you'll do anything for it.

Sound:
Some times the sound buzzes but overall it has a very clear tone and a great sound projection.

Ease of Use:
When I was looking at other Gibson models this one stuck out not only by the famous Dove but I loved the sound more than the others.

Support:
I have had no problems with the support or the guitar, when I bought the guitar it was sent and packaged very well.

Overall:
I will always be satisfied with this product. If I ware this guitar out I would buy it again, but with a pickup. If this guitar was stolen from me I would find a way to replace it with the same model. When my band plays acoustic this guitar is perfect for the job.

"Gods Guitar"

Quality:
A Gibson is a Gibson.. that holds true in this guitar

Desirability:
it wasnt just a "i want it" moment it was a "i have to have it" moment

Sound:
When i was shopping around i played the Martin M36, the Eric Clapton Signature, and the Gibson J-185... the Dove blew them all away

Ease of Use:
It was set up in store. the action is low but there is no fret buzz... and the neck seemed to just fit

Overall:
I dont see myself buying another guitar.. ever
