Nice! You even got a standard... I am saving up for a studio. It will be guitar number 5 and my last guitar. I want a real Gibson LP.

Re: First Gibson guitar
Very nice, but I detected a critical flaw right off the bat: it’s right handed. Was the seller aware of this flaw when he foisted this useless (to me) guitar off on you?

Andy, in case you havent get some ernie ball strap locks. I have dropped several guitars until I changed out the standard mounts for strap locks. Nice strap also. I like that.

The first thing I thought when I saw the strap was that it looked like a rifle sling.Syntyr wrote: Sun Dec 29, 2019 10:55 am Andy, in case you havent get some ernie ball strap locks.
