  1. I’ve bought several guitars including my L-00 Standard, amps, music stands, strings, capos, etc., without a hiccup.

    Although I did not pay for their “setup”, the guitars came in very good playable condition.

    Elderly’s in Lansing Michigan is well known and you will pay $100 for a setup there also (at least it was 6 months ago),

    I wonder what is actually performed during a “setup” provided by a place like GC, for $50? Are we talking a tweak of the truss rod?

  2. In April I ordered a L-00 Standard Vintage Burst from Sweetwater with the understanding they were out of stock, but, on order.

    I was told that delivery could possibly be in May, but, most likely June. I gave my card number which would not be charged until I received said guitar. That insured I was on the list.

    I received the guitar on the 13th of this month and was thrilled! They apparently received 3 of them and one was already marked sold! That one was mine.

    I love that little guitar!

     

     

     

     

     

  3. I would just leave it as is and continue to play it. In time, it will take on a vintage look which will be far better than any faux enhancement.

    I don’t care for the relic’ed finish on new guitars, nor do I care for purposely relic’ed old guitars. 

    Just an opinion from an old man, oops, I mean honestly relic’ed man!
     

     

     

     

     

  4. Got into guitar late, 72 now. Been playing on my own for 2 years. Back room hacker, but enjoying the journey.

    Awaiting arrival of a L-00 Standard Vintage Burst that’s on preorder from Sweetwater, which will be my first Gibson.

    Hope that baby sounds as sweet as it looks!

  5. I have pre-ordered an L-00 Standard Vintage Burst from Sweetwater and it will be my first Gibson.

    I know strings are a subjective thing, but I was wondering what strings have worked for other L-00 owners.

    I am 72 years of age and my skills are somewhat limited (but improving), and I like blues, along with finger style.

    I look forward to the arrival of my guitar which will most likely be June. Gassing badly for this little beauty!

    Thanks in advance for any opinions.
