Gibson Tom Morgan Guitar Customer Review

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Sound
Great sound from the 57 classic pickups. has a nice sustain to it.
Features
Standard features of a Les Paul, but the head stock has the old Gibson Holly inlaid in mother of pearl, a very nice feature of this guitar.
Ease of Use
As with all gibson factory guitars, the action was not set to where I'd like it. I made an adjustment myself and it plays great now. I am still going to send it out to have it setup by a pro, but after that one simple adjustment, I can put it off for a while now.
Quality
Gibson Les Paul Quality.
Value
Any Gibson Les Paul Antique Classic for under $1200 is a great deal, let alone one that was made to a limit of 400. An instant collectors item.
Manufacturer Support
I tried to find out from gibson what number of the 400 my guitar is, and they claim they can't tell me based on the serial number. I think this is b.s. since they have a limited edition guitar, they have to know what order they were made in.
The Wow Factor
Very Retro hand painted design by a famous artist. It is also hand signed by the artist (Tom Morgan).
