Okay, WTF is going on with Gibson?! First they screw up all the 2015's, and they seem right on track with the 2016's as well. This is a $1,500 guitar and it was by far one of the worst playing, sounding instruments I've played in a long time. It was like somebody was shoving an ice pick through my brain on the neck pickup, so you can imagine what it was like on the bridge

 

I absolutely love my '93 double cut jr. And I thought that this would be one step up from there. Nope!

 

First of all, for $1,500 you think you would get more than just a gig bag. It has an extremely cheap looking/feeling satin finish, the neck felt like I would snap it in half if I pressed on the fretboard too hard and it felt so light I could have sworn it was a piece of plastic not mahogany. I know some guys like a really like guitar but when you're buying something that's supposed to be a chunk of mahogany expected to have some girth behind it.

 

The one thing I liked about the guitar was the tall skinny frets.....come on Gibson, I really want to buy one of your products again so get your sh** together
