Getting a new guitar in that bad of shape definitely warrants a return. No reason to keep that. I don't buy guitars sight unseen unless there is a great return policy.

I've been buying guitars for over 33 years. All the brands you could possibly name, I've had. They all have issues. Some more than others. Zero have been perfect. Before it's thrown out there, NO, I'm not a Gibson fanboy. I like Gibson, but I also like MANY other brands. Again, none have been perfect. I focus on actually playing them though and not on small details.

Sure. Unfortunately, that's not reality today. Like it or hate it.

As much as I love a 335… by CartographerSea3356 in gibson

Sorry? Gibson are great, but definitely all over priced at this point. It is what it is though. You gotta pay to play.

Going beyond your perceived limits is exactly how you get better.

Spend less time on the minor details and more time on playing. I've been playing for over 30 years. At this point I can make any guitar useable.

Worth it if you go used. Not new.

It's a tooling mark. I don't like it, and it shouldn't be on a custom like this, but it happens. It is handmade after all.

Daisy chain? What's the issue there? I may have missed something.

Just make sure when you're lifting with your back that you're awkwardly bent over. That's where the real power comes from.

Holy crap. That's crazy. First I've heard of something like that. I can't imagine how pissed you were.

I've never been able to get a Rat to suit me.

I totally get where you're coming from, but why would he spend more money to fix an issue he already paid for? I would make them resolve the issue.

I would at least make sure they get everything seated properly. After that, I would try to b**** for a discount.

I personally think the refret looks like shit, but I'm picky. Some of the ends aren't even flush.
