Weekend Game (a topic no one dared touch before)
ratherbwalkn replied to E-minor7's topic in Gibson Acoustic
+1 on the rattles About 15 years or so ago I came across a d-28 an early 60 model, at one of the guitar stores I visit when I go down to the big city. While trying it out I happened to hear a bit of a rattle in the guitar and I was surprised to find a rattlesnake rattle, its still there btw, Upon asking the owner of the store he told me what he knew about the guitar, I won't bother with the story . Then I started asking around and I was told different stories, some said it was for good luck and other such things, but what I heard the most was that it started w -
Any guesses what kind of Gibson this is? LG-1?
ratherbwalkn replied to Kid B's topic in Gibson Acoustic

ratherbwalkn replied to Revelation's topic in Gibson Acoustic
I had one of those 80's Cherry d-25s Guild, that thing was built like a tank, it didn't sound bad, just way over built, Im glad I had it, it was a good campfire (type) guitar. I sold it for a 93 d-16h which was as light as a feather. -

I dont have a lot of experience with Gibson and its been a long time since I bought new, But when I was buying new guitars, I always preferred high action, for simple reason no guitar builder can come up with a perfect setup, like everything else we are all different, I would give my guitars 3 to 6 months before doing a setup that would suit my needs. IMHO
