  1. FWIW, a writeup... https://www.cowboysindians.com/2024/02/gibson-a-handcrafted-american-original/
  2. Don't know if it's been posted, have not seen this til now. Cool!
  3. You're very talented, great job! The vocal and you're playing is top-notch. Keep at it!
  4. As for color, if you're asking for personal opinion, mine is traditional vintage sunburts, not the tri-color. But beauty is in the eye of the beholder. As for retaining value, I have no idea how the market treats those colors. I just think the old sunburst is stunning when done well. Maybe some exist, but I haven't seen any Gibson not done well. I have lucked up buying some guitars without playing (with a return policy) them first but much prefer playing first. My last two J45s, different models, were bought online and both are awesome.
  5. On a constructive note, I did not care for using "Oklahoma" either. Didn't work for me. " Kudos to you for taking this on, good job! And doing the rewrites. I have written several songs about real tragedy. As for word count, it is a big concern for me, I am always wary. Wordy songs can certainly work (cue Dylan) and I have a bunch of 'em! I usually write 'normal' length or word count but I def enjoy writing wordy songs. Fun!
  6. Sounds good to me, Buc. Good playing, too, sounds mystical.
  7. Oh, my, that sounds fantastic. Wow, that is a beautiful sound! I have been drooling over my Martin D28 sound of late but this Gibson is giving me gas. I will be in Nashville in the near future, I wish I could find one to try.
  8. In another country from where you lived -- near Shreveport. You know the drill... it's East Texas. Well, actually, music-wise, it's not. Cross the line to Texas, and people actually appreciate music, even original music.
  9. I really like how their website actually described the product as such... Why Should You Play White Bronze? You're using a magnetic pickup with your acoustic guitar You want to coax the full dynamic range out of your acoustic guitar You want a string that can last a long time, that isn't coated
  10. What is the purpose of the soundhole cover. What is the need to use it?
  11. Wow, you are right, I see it now! How cool!
  12. You beat me to it. My dad was a farmer/cattleman. I have a song idea I started long ago in my idea book (hundreds/thousands of ideas) to write "Daddy's Knife." I must say you did a great job. If I ever write my song, I will have to mention cutting his fingernails. I was always fascinated to watch him do that. His fingernails were like ironwood compared to my kid fingernails. All the way around, great job. Guitar sounds very gibsony! I enjoyed the song, you're good, Ben!
  13. What a dream story, congrats bigtime!
  14. How cool, Sal, I didn't know Gibson made a guitar like this! I'm interested in playing a guitar with a port someday.
