Good to hear! Next thing you know Gibson will be selling Murphy Relic guitars that ship with broken headstocks and a bottle of gorilla glue for the most authentic experience

 

[Fiesta Red]

fixable?

I don't think so. It broke right on the headstock side of the nut where the truss rod cavity is. There's not much there to work with at all. Seemed to be the thinnest or weakest place to break

“There’s a problem with the guitar”
“What is it?”
“Well, it’s wood, with strings and can be electric or acoustic…but that’s not important right now”

This might be more appropriate for the shipper...

I’d imagine the newer ones are going to be popping up on Reverb out of Japan any day now, for probably not that much more than a grand. That still sucks. Every time I open the box/case on a new guitar I hold my breath.

Man, that's freaking brutal. Sorry for your troubles.

I think I'm going to grab one when they do..

I’m not big on V’s but they’ve been getting my attention lately. A black V w/ an ebony board and block inlays? That’d be hard to say “no” to.

Son of a Bitch!

That sucks Brother. Could have had a v8

They're popping up on Ebay, but you have to sift through to find out which sellers are legit and actually HAVE the guitar. Bunch of sneaky bastards snatching photos, taking your money, then buying it from somebody else to make a couple bucks.

It shocks me to no end that that shit isn't illegal. If thats not fraud, I don't know what is.

I’ll just stick with Gakkido on Reverb, Jun is tried and true. I’m on a gear purchasing pause right now so I got time before they start popping up in their store again!

Yes he is. In fact, I'm going to message him on Reverb about a V.

I’m being lazy here, but if he gives any updates on the re-newed Gibson line feel free to share it!

I'd be interested in a black one
..and a white one

Luckily internet is invented and a video call can sort this matter out easily

White for me.
