Members Fender&EHX4ever Posted May 18, 2011 Members Share Posted May 18, 2011 I can't either...but I recently traded my Budda for this '95 custom shop: HOT! I would play that. But I probably wouldnt spend $2k on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members crohny Posted May 18, 2011 Members Share Posted May 18, 2011 buying used does wonders. i still only have one really nice gibson and thats only a sg standard. easily one of the best guitars ive ever played. have a faded v and a 1960 studio lp. one day ill have a purdy high end gibson goldtop. ONE DAY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jhamnett Posted May 18, 2011 Members Share Posted May 18, 2011 i've owned 3 of them and all 3 were worth every penny...honestly u can pick up a gibson faded sg for around $400-500 used and once u swap the terrible stock pick-ups you'll have a killer guitar. Same with the faded les pauls. There are some reasonably priced gibsons out there, and they truly are worth the money as these guitars are built to last a life time.faded sgsfaded les paulsblueshawknighthawkcan all be had for around 600 (exception : nighthawk)... so you too can be a gibson guy.but u know, there's a few manufacturers who I would turn before Gibson if I were going to spend anywhere near 2k on a guitar (Jackson USA, Ibanez j-custom, Taylor, Caparison) -- but for entry level guitars ($700 range), Gibson is pretty hard to beat once u replace their crap pick-ups. On the LP Fadeds you don't even need to swap the pickups, Burstbucker Pros! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ozzeh Posted May 18, 2011 Members Share Posted May 18, 2011 tell that to my friend who dropped his (in the factory hard case) and the headstock popped clean off Well I imagine any guitar could be susceptible to radical damage if dropped from high enough...I know a guy who bought a 1975'ish es-335 that is still his main guitar to this day (and he plays A LOT). Granted his headstock fell off too but after the repair it was good to go.Every Gibson I have owned has been a) beautiful b) sounded GREAT with slight pick-up / action modifications (the 490 / 498 combo blows BAD...)
