enjoikevin Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 I just bought a GO recently and I love it! It comes with bumblebee caps or so it says. I have read in several places that these are not paper in oil caps like the original bumble bees were. Im not to sure about the pots. I would be interested to know that as well since I am thinking about upgrading the pots and caps in my guitar.
Tim Plains Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 turtle, so you played a GO at Guitar Center? Same guitar as a R8, just with a thinner neck. I've played two while in the US and the only difference I noticed was the serial number and GOs do not have the little pointer thingimajig on the volume/tone knobs. http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/gg225/Gibson_Tim/Picture2202.jpg
