For myself the refinish is a deal killer for a vintage guitar.

My guess is you are going to get one in each flavor cause they are so revolutionary? Or your gonna get none of them and tell me I'm a hater while applauding Gibson's direction under the rule of JC, which is I see no better than when King Henry was at the helm.
Bad guess- I’m happy with my three ancient Gibson models. All I meant was…haters gonna hate.

I have owned several Gibsons and still have three, all older than myself. Never heard a tone from one that I would describe as a growl or a snarl… I just call it a hollow tubby sound, the quintessential Gibson sound.

To Paul Hipp RevLG2Tom: looked you up on Wikipedia and YouTube and it seems that you have had an interesting life. My favorite clip is “jesus never had a midlife crisis” it needs more lyrics! Congrats on the banner LG2.

Would like to hear someone elicit some subtlety from it apart from the constant thrashing in this instance.

tried to do a deep dive for you- quite probably made in year 2000 before moving to Chinese production. Perhaps try contacting regal with your info https://www.sagamusic.com/products/guitars/regal/
It is a fine looking guitar, worthy of play. I have owned a 12 fret National style N for several years, and should you choose to replace biscuit and cone, best to find someone familiar and adept with the process, as it is easy to mess up the cone. Change one string at a time to avoid cone collapse...happy picking! -
Outstanding... Bravo!

The Pre-war guitar company is of the opinion that finish checking can improve tone- I suspect this to be the case as well.

“It’s all over now baby blue” for 2020 -
Dylan is 79 years old. So maybe now’s a good time to figure out how his music will live on after he dies. The slog of administrative work that comes with licensing isn’t a great gift to leave family members- registering copyrights, pursuing licenses, tracking down the royalties. So instead of all that — maybe Dylan wants to leave his heirs with hundreds of millions in cash.
Streaming and COVID-19 may also be factors.
There’s no reason to begrudge the man his well deserved financial success.

At the 1:40 mark observe how Dave Rawlings takes a Kyser capo from his pocket, deftly attaches it to his guitar neck at what appears to be the 7th fret, plays a solo (that most guitar pickers would be proud to call their own), then removes it to finish the song. Considering that the failure to place the capo properly the first time would have derailed the performance, it seems to be a positive testimonial of the ease and utility of the Kyser. Of course one must consider that the Kyser is a non-photogenic ugly duckling. :>)- 1

I love my J200, but I am not a big lover of the double pickguards.
Neither am I but just trying to divert from the grampa rants.

Decent advice but not relevant for a lefty desiring a vintage Gibson- easier to find a leprechaun riding a unicorn into the lost dutchman’s mine for to drink from the fountain of youth than to locate factory lefty vintage Gibsons with any regularity.

Did the guitar feel heavy in weight?
