A couple of years ago a friend of mine went into a mom and pop store that ordered in 10 Gibson's. 9 went back with finish flaws or fret problems. Another friend went to buy an LP at a big chain. He went through about 20 and gave up. They all were flawed in some way. He bought an Edwards instead. None of my friends can figure out why the quality has gone down so much. Twenty years ago you could pick a Gibbie off the rack blindfolded knowing it would be perfect.
i would love to read some of your post on this matter if you could link them i would enjoy the infomation (ignorance is a lack of knowledge)(stupidity is a denial of knowledge.)...... just lookin for the knowledge ........thx thumbs for the info
