"GIBSON HAS DONE IT AGAIN!!!"

As the title sais, GIBSON HAS DONE IT AGAIN!!! Amazing guitar, amazing sound. It’s definitely one of the best purchases I’ve ever done in my life! It’s quality and sound are amazing!. I decided to go with the classic natural rather than the rosewood burst and don’t regret it at all. The fingerboard is made of richlite which is not that big deal but it would’ve been nice to have it rosewood as well, but the guitar’s overall amazingness makes up for it.

Features

The only thing i do have a problem with and it’s not even that big of a deal it’s the strap button where your output jack is. Gibson could’ve come up with something better as it’s a bit of a challenge to strap your parlor from that output jack strap button (which is manageable).
