I ordered the guitar over a Bank Holiday weekend. I received it four days later. It came in a Gibson soft case and protected in two strong cardboard boxes. The guitar plays like a thoroughbred should, everything is right about it the fingerboard the sound which is changed by the tone controls and it looks great. I have Fender, Ibanez but this Gibson is becoming my favourite workhorse. Very pleased with the purchase and the price.

Beautiful guitar, but arrived with the neck bowed backwards, strings 1, 2 & 3 all buzzed when played open… adjusted the truss rod anti-clockwise by 1/2 a turn and all seems well now, but since I’m not skilled at setting up, I’m going to get it checked over by the Guitar Doctor in Penzance before being happy, regards Lee
