stein Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 DANG!!! I might sign up for just about anything for a reward like that. Just kidding, THANK YOU for going there. Gonna tell us about it? What is the "P" inlay at 12 fret? And what is that name on the label? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wadhams! Posted August 21, 2011 Author Share Posted August 21, 2011 The "P" stands for premier model of the es-137. The guitar was made in 2002 for a Gibson employee (her name is in the one on the model label). Aside from the mahogany brace, this guitar is all maple loaded with what I believe to be '57 classics. It a truly stunning guitar with great tone and playability. It has a slightly fatter neck than you common LP 50's. However, the action retains it's integrity ( I feared it was going to be too thick.). This is an entirely original es-137, you won't find another one like it. I'm very proud to be it's owner!
