I need a big box. I identify as an elephant. -
I guess I shouldn't go here

Pull the trigger on this advanced jumbo with neck repair?
Dave F replied to brettryantalley's topic in Gibson Acoustic
Both AJ's I had, had a larger than normal angled bridge, elevating the bass strings. I did not care for that or the extra string tension. -
The forum is about Gibson acoustic which almost all the members are interested. Buying new Gibson's is not a prerequisite. A few members who don't have a Gibson newer than the '40's are some of my favorite and most informative. My comment meant nothing negative. The M2M program releases the dealer from the MSRP/MAP restrictions put on them by Gibson. They can charge what they want, so it depends on which Gibson dealer you deal with. I've had a Martin custom made and it worked the same way. Two of the Gibson M2M were not specials, but just models that were out of production. The L00 I ordered had a body from a standard run, a neck from a different recent run and a dark burst. The only up-charge was the aged top. Price came in less than the L00 Deluxe. Again, it all depends on the dealer. I can recommend Bailey Brothers in Birmingham, AL and Music Outlet in TN. Making the deal is up to you.

Not at all. I've ordered three M2M Gibsons and thought the cost was less than I could get a standard model. You just have to be smart about about avoiding any extra tooling cost.

Quite a few on this forum, not all, are not in to buying new Gibson's or even new guitars. Nothing wrong with that.

Gator makes a nice TSA ES case. I bought this one for a Ovation Gibson ES wannabe.

I’ve had two AJ’s. Very nice guitars. -

I wouldn't go over 1200 and only after I checked it out for the truss rod issue. -
5) and an adjustable bridge added

I have a collection of Calton and Hoffee cases that fit each size guitar for when I’m worried about transporting them. I store all the original cases.

I think I need a new guitar rack. I do have a couple rotating trees that hold 8 each, but I like this one in Terri's office.

4) Could have been sent back to the factory for a new neck and pick guard 😉 Maybe it's a Banner guitar!

3) Grandpa could had switched pick guards

I had similar issues when looking for a Super 400 case

Don't know about this GC, but I have a friend that works at the one close to me. They're told to not worry about the guitars. Let the kids bang on them. As an employee, you would have to get numb about them. I doubt if any of them are qualified to repair cracks. Any repairs would need submitted to Gibson for approval. Also, they usually have one in the back untouched in a box or can get you one within a few days
