The Wow Factor
Musical Background: week end rocker, been gigging since 1970
Music Style: Hard Rock, Classic rock, metal
Back to Product Information
Sound: The sweetest tone imaginable. Good for all genres of music. Feature: All you ever need. Pick-up switching, and a volume and tone control for each pick-up. Ease of Use: The neck is a little larger than most guitars (other than the other Gibson RI's), that's where the tone and sustain come from. Quality: Impeccable build quality and materials, and it shows. Value: Not as good a value as the 57 RI, but it has that figured wood top that drives you crazy. Manufacturer Support: Never had to use it. The Wow Factor: The Sex appeal doesn't get any higher. Overall: I will probably own my 59 RI's until I can no longer pick them up, and then they will be inherited by my guitar playing sons.
