    I've had it for a few days now and the guitar is solid. Good weight, neck isn't too thick, tuning pegs and knobs are beautiful in person. The pickups are on the quiet side, so the guitar doesn't drive distortion pedals as hot. Only gripe: not enough color options for left handed model

    Three questions: 1. Gibson had a price increase Monday, but this was purchased by GC before then, so will you take less for the guitar? 2. What is the weight of this model 3. Are pics of the guitar I would receive available. This is a stock photo it appears.

    Why does the lefthanded version of this guitar have an indian laurel fretboard and the right handed have rosewood? Why does the lefthanded version have humbuckers and the right handed have probucker burst bucker pickups? Why does the lefthanded version have an Epiphone inlay in the headstock? These are all in the descriptions of both guitars. Why are they different? is the lefthanded version a knockoff epiphone for $2700? What is going on? I want the lefthanded version but not with the cheaper material.
