I dont know Gibsons that well but it doesn't look like BRW to me, as stated it looks more in line with IRW. The laminated question I cant answer.

I never realized Chinese letters are blocked or squarish.. Learn somthing everyday!

Thanks for the pics Tom!

Another nice job!

I can't say anything about Gibson, but I had other brands do exactly the same and I always thought it was just the material ( some types of plastic ) beginning to age. IMHO

Good instruction!

Nice guitar, I had an eighties cherry d-25 Guild and I called it "the tank" it was built like a tank and I used it for outdoor things like camping and the sort, it was a fine player did the job when called a pond. Enjoy your new addition its looks really nice!

Beautiful Guitar!

Sounds pretty cool to me, Thanks

Three most important issues for me are Tone Tone and Tone! IMHO

I guess you are right it must look like Im just picking on Gibson,( wasn't my intent ) I cant see anything wrong with that video. I do know they have had some issues over the years, and I thought I would share the video, Im glad you see it in a positive light. , I've followed Mark for years at Norms and really like the guy and still do. And I still hope Gibsons management right the ship so to speak. Although, I guess to be specific was he suggesting Martin sue everybody that uses X bracing, thats kind of what I heard? Thats just one of the many questions that crossed my mind while watching the video? And again thats me, I hope potential future buyers saw it as good reason to want to buy a Gibson! Because they make really good guitars

Longtime lurker here and a not so often poster, I just saw a video that disturbs me only in sense that I along with a lot of other people I know really hope Gibson does well in the future, so I sharing this video and its made me wonder, thought I would share. https://www.reddit.com/link/c1p9kc/vide ... 431/player

Tom my condolences, I've known you over the years from UMGF or other Vintage guitars sites only but when ever I've had a question about your guitars or anything related to guitars you always have been kind and informative, it was also always obvious that your wife was right there by your side and just much into guitars as you were. I would like to thank you for helping me learn more a guitars and again my condolence for your loss. Jeff

My favorite tile of a thirties blues song was "How can i miss you if you won't go away"

Way sweet!
