Members ILikeGuitar Posted July 30, 2012 Members Share Posted July 30, 2012 Just wondering because I'm interested in a Gibson that was made Dec 2011 according to the serial number... Also anyone know if the frets are embedded through the top layer on the laminate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like the "ADD compared to a goldfish in the bowl" joke.
