Thanks - It does have some Mojo and a whole lotta Gibby WHOMP - I play it through a Trace TA100 with the new Fishman Aura system - It does get some attention - Fundamental tone

Like has often been said, "Don't pick a guitar just to impress guitar players ... pick a guitar to impress their girlfriends"

Is the back laminated on the Gibby?  Are the nut and saddle stock?

Yes everything is factory spec on all three guitars - No modifications - The only thing I have changed are the strings

Nice looking flame, much better than a lot of Gibsons lately.  And love that sunburst.  Does the case come with that Gibson lining, the one you lay over the top before you close the lid?

Looks like a 1997 model.........

Serial Numbers, 1977 to present.
All models, 8 digit number impressed in back top of peghead in the following format:
YY (1st and 5th digit) = year
DDD (digits 2-4) = day of the year,
                   001=Jan 1st, 365=Dec 31st.
NNN (digits 6-8) = rank of instrument for that day.
Example: 80012005 = 5th instrument made in Kalamazoo
                    on the first day of 1982.

FNG - Thanks for the help and insights on the Gibson - 1997 might be a possible - I know it was somewhere back in the 90's and I apologize for not paying more attention in that decade - You know how it is

The case is the standard one the guitar came with - no inner shawl but it fits nice and snug with a big usual Gibby logo on the side - I have pics if anyone is interested in taking a look

Also thanks for the link to the fella interested in buying - Mighty nice of you

I'm getting to like this forum - Folks are friendly and genuine and don't seem to have an agenda - Thanks for making me feel welcome
