    Just arrived. 

    First ever new guitar. And first Gibson. 




    wow that thing is gorgeous! i saw when these were released and I wanted one but as soon as I clicked on the link they were immediately sold out. this thing is going to hold its value as well. good pick up!

    Got this one a couple weeks ago and took it straight to a luthier to get the electronics fixed. Picked it up today.

    Definitely player grade ‘74 model.  Needs a re-fretting soon.  Non original tuners.

    It is very comfortable to play.  The neck feels great. I absolutely love the tone.  The electronics are very interesting.  Has a knob for in and out of phase, and then a knob for different impedance selections.

    My only beef is that the high E string doesn’t seem to ring out very long and then at some point the frets need redone.  Guitar should play even better after that.  Found a guitar store nearby that I really like and they have done a nice job cleaning this one up and fixing the electronics.

    Wow-Nice!
    They made it for students (and parents of students :wink: ) at School of Rock to purchase at a discount as their first forever guitar. 

    They made 100 in this initial run. I actually got 1 of 100. 

     Thanks for teaching me something new-I didn't know there was a School of Rock method, etc. for real. Nice "forever guitar" score
      And I have to laugh about the kids starting out-w/ acoustic guitar. My kids got both- and I think it was a good thing. 
       It's fun looking at all the guitars shared here

    - yet, yikes! see i need this bridge replaced on the (old) first little guitar i started w/ as a kid. haven't info yet if old/new stock is even available or around concerning-cuz it is a plastic bridge!  what i've seen on ebay, most look like the bridges have been replaced-& not w/the plastic one. epiphone ft-30 caballero-(kalamazoo/Gibson made). 
     so i think "get this repaired" before any new purchases...

    Not sure if the new frets would do it but hopefully they could figure it out at the same time.
