My First Gibson - ES137 Custom

... and it's a damn nice one too. I have about 10 guitars in my house, all of them except this Gibson is under $500. The best guitar I had was a tex-mex Fender Tele which I am still keeping for the unique single coil sound that guitar has, but my god, it just does not compare to the total awesomeness of this beautiful mint condition 2003 ES-137 CUSTOM guitar.

I played it for my wife and she said, OMG, that's what sex sounds like! I agree!

I beg your pardon?

That's better! I agree with that whole-heartedly.

Love this ES137. Great looking guitar. My local shop has a cherry red one (custom). It also looks really good.

And btw thanks to whoever pointed out that I had the body specs completely wrong! That's what I get when i make a vid in 10 minutes before leaving ](*,)

I have one of these and am delighted with it. Like the pics at the top of the thread mine is the triburst custom with gold hardware. I don't think you'll find a nicer looking guitar anywhere and it sounds awesome. It cost me an arm and a leg new about a year ago but I've never regretted choosing it over a plainer ES335 or one of a million Les Paul variants. This one is special and I highly recomend it.
