Dub-T-123 Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Might upset some people here but I’d send it back. It shouldn’t affect sound or playability but it’s a shame they sent it to you in this condition 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

01GT eibach Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 On a $3000 LP Slash model? Not acceptable. I am really surprised to see that out of Gibson these days. Definitely, send it back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinnier6 Posted April 18, 2021 Author Share Posted April 18, 2021 Thanks for the replies...it’s a shame, but it is going back and they will send me another one...I selected this one because of the excellent flame top...hopefully I can select another nice top 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NighthawkChris Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Who knows what happened to that guitar. You should be happy with that kind of purchase so turn it in if it isn’t right. Better to have the money than get a guitar that isn’t worth it to you. Good luck. Have to say that top is pretty hard to beat... Hope you get one nicer!

kidblast Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 I think I would send it back, you'll feel that all the time. what a shame, that's got a gorgeous top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eracer_Team Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Don't know if I'd blame the factory. Who knows where that marking originally occurred Could be a GC/MF return and resold as new. Hopefully your next one looks just as nice and "defect" free Waiting for the new pictures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinnier6 Posted April 19, 2021 Author Share Posted April 19, 2021 It’s in the finish, so it definitely came from the factory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure the flame on the next one will be great too! Heh, I remember seeing Adam Day (tech) demo Slash's main live guitar.. Boy, did it have repairs on it. Then again, Slash can afford new ones.

Larsongs Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 If it was used it would be one thing but being brand new it’s unacceptable.. Unless, they want give you a huge discount.. Like 50% off or more.. But, if it were me I’d want another one that’s without flaws.. Most are.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
