ya...I thought I'm the only one who thinks Gibson's QC has dropped although they are MIA. Tested a few LP studios and they vary a lot so much so that the worst one is comparable to Epi's Custom LP. Not sure about Gibson acoustics though...

haha, the funny thing being when i first discover bout gear forums thingy bout 8-9 years back, which was already pretty late compared to some others, as a newbie, i remembered seeing comments of gibson qc going down, only the oldies the goodies, etc when talking bout those geetar...
heh, maybe if theres anybody who already reading bbs board or those older newsgroups back in the 90s, can chip in if already then, people been talking bout bad qc of gibson
so sad that the first decade of y2k gonna be over soon. Guess in the next decade of 2010 onwards, there will still be another batch of people like the batch before, who love geetar much, talking bout qc going down..
lets use what pap used during the election on gibson geetars!!! MORE GOOD YEARS!!!
(adding mine) HUAT, HUAT HUATTTTT AH!!!!

IMO, the whole negative thing about Gibson's QC is blown out of proportion. You often get people parroting what others say about Gibson, although some of them have not even try playing with it long enough (or at all) to make concrete judgement. Some just pick up one or two pieces from the rack, inspect it, strum it for a while, and conclude ALL Gibsons are bad or have bad QC.

For me, it's more like picking up 10 pieces, and discovering that only 2 are decently built. Or rather, picking up the only 2 or 3 pieces available in the store and all have issues.
And having to pay $5k for a AA top when I can get a AAAA top for much less from a PRS?

Good point... usually, the guitar IS well made, as in, the neck is straight, the tuners work, the pickups work, etc etc... But those inlays and frets are scary... or even the binding is badly done... very sharp. And sometimes that nut slotting it really badly done. Like, they don't even slot it deep enough, and the low E just pops out when you bend it.
Then again, Fender is also mostly worse. That's why I've given up on both... hahahahaha...:mrgreen:
