A little rant on the ethics or lack thereof when considering a Chibson. I also go into the mods I did that I said I wound't do.......couldn't help myself.
I just bought two, a gold (yellow) top, and a cherry burst. The cherry burst weighs a tonne and actually looks vintage! Including serial number, that looks to be stamped, but no made in usa. It has already been modded with gibson pots, and has a load of fret wear , so someone loved it! It has a great feel, slim 60s neck and I am in the process of fitting burstbuckers. The gold top on the other hand is like new, and plays like crap. The idea is to gig them, and keep my gibson explorer 76 reissue for special occasions. Thanks for the videos!!
I also bought one of those custom shops and do not regret it one bit! It is a 2016 historic R9 in ice tea burst. Plays and sounds incredible. Best guitar i own!🤘
I'm ordering one from Kathy's guitars after watching a review by Fulton Street beats. That shop is the best Chibson custom shop. He had her build one and it was dang good. Check his channel out...plus he goes through the legality and ethics. They're not forgeries, they're "close" copies, a huge difference. Anyway, love Peter Green so I'm saving for one of the Cathy Customs.
