    Gibson Les Paul Tribute T 2018?? help

    in Gibson USA

    Posted

    What can I say about my Les Paul Tribute : GREAT! PURE GIBSON!

     

    The only bad point imho is the 490T humbucker, it is lazy. Very easy to upgrade.

     

    - Buffing finish

    - Blank '59 Historic truss rod cover

    - Black plastics and 5 ply pickguard (Gibson)

    - Historic switch tip and black poker chip

    - Nickel metal jack plate

    - Gold knobs

    - Gibson ABR-1 bridge

    Gibson Epiphone SG 'Neck Dive" Poll

    in Gibson USA

    Posted

    I don' t have neck dive issue wih my Gibsons SG.

    The most sensitive SG to neck dive is a '61 RI shape + heavy tuners , the most important and invisible parameter is the weight of the body

     

    The Epi G400 body is made with light woods, the design is '61 RI inspired and tuners are hravy Groover many times.

    Looks great !!

    Where did you get that pickguard from ? I'd like to get one !

     

     

    I bought the pickguard on EBay, C-Rocker Custom Guitars shop.

     

    My Epi Casino was mase in 2015 so I order this model : https://www.ebay.com/itm/CASINO-2012-2013-5-Ply-Black-Pickguard-Bracket-made-for-Epiphone-Project-NEW/132284368444?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160727114228%26meid%3D1ceca15010794315b77329583870a28f%26pid%3D100290%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D4%26mehot%3Dlo%26sd%3D152595465968&_trksid=p2060778.c100290.m3507

     

    Buy a 5 ply pickguard with 60° wide bevel.

     

    Choose the correct model : http://stores.ebay.com/C-Rocker-Custom-Guitars?_dmd=2&_nkw=casino+5ply+pickguard

    don't even bother pinch Revolution Six (aka SG Player) will never do anything more than trash these guitars.

     

    PRoBuckers are good pickups, I like the ones in my Sheraton Pro II,

     

    he wouldn't know, he's never tried them, nor ever will.

     

     

    That' s wrong,

     

    Epiphone humbuckers sound crap, they sound like an electric drill. A set of Gibson humbuckers is necessary.

     

    P90 are great, no problem.

    Gibson Has Serious Quality Control Issues AGAIN !

    I ordered my new Les Paul and it finally arrived only to find out, after unpacking it that it had a dark spot in the wood the size of a dime on the flame maple top and the body binding had a big curve in it clearly exposing the paint seam, as if someone came along while the person was applying the binding and bumped their arm.

     

    I can't believe their doing this again it's the mid to late 90's and early 2000's all over again, even the guy's at the guitar store said " Wow I can't believe this was allowed to leave the factory ", and that's their own suppliers talking, luckily I was able to exchange it for another one from the stores distribution center.

     

    Now you might say that I could've got a rare bad egg out of thousands, but this also happened over a month ago when I ordered an ES-335 and it showed up new in box, and it had an indentation in the wood on the neck..

    I'm just one person and it happened to me twice in less than two months time.

     

    What is going on over there?, I should've wrote down the final inspectors name, taken a picture and emailed it to him and asked how such an aesthetically flawed guitar got past him.

    Well I just hope my replacement is a lot better than previous orders....I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

     

    Come on Gibson pay attention to those details.....PRS certainly is.

     

     

    Buy a chinese copy or an Epiphnone my friend .....

     

    :D :lol: :D :D
