The guitar has been well looked after, there are the usual, to be expected light signs of playing wear but over all the guitar represents nicely. Full of features it has a wealth of tones available but importantly at its core it is a great sounding guitar. Loud acoustically and balanced amplified. The G-Force tuners are understandably not to every players taste but you can’t deny the system works very well and ultimately it is an easy switch to tradition tuners should you wish.
Weighing in at 8.9lbs the guitar ships with the original Gibson USA Hardshell case, Gibson USA's owners manual and literature, Gibson USA Multi-Tool, Gibson USA Premium Strap, Gibson USA Polishing Cloth and G-force charger.
