wyatt earp Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Just curious as to why Gibson takes a picture of the guitar at the factory and puts the photo in the case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zebra Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Because it's cool. It's a baby picture. Mine got sold to me with the wrong case -_- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merciful-evans Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 I like those pictures. It is (I imagine) as it was on the bench of the fellow that did the final inspection/set-up. I think it demonstrates a measure of pride & continuity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Studio-T Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Gibson is a step above the rest, baby picture and birth certificate. The little things add up! There will always be that guy who chucks them in the trash, a few years later will want them back, I`m not that guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajay Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Don't throw it away! If I buy a 2016 used, I would want it with the guitar! Shows Your very guitar in the factory. I think it's the best thing Gibson has come up with in quite a while. It gives Your guitar a birth certificate. Love 'em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveT2 Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 I had the same thought. Now if it included vital stats like parents,and especially weight I could see it. But I did keep mine in the case just for grins. What finish is yours ? I like it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merciful-evans Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Its all ok until you get the guitar refinished, pickup rings & pick guard changed, new knobs etc. Then when you sell it, the picture makes it look like a fake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPguitarman Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Must be something new they started doing. I didn't get a baby picture with mine, but that was 9-years ago. Gosh has it been that long? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
