Looks like they are all out of the plain maple again.This one I just grabbed from the HOG fresh off the truck.
Beefy neck and great feel.

Dude, I'm so sorry you can't find some regular plain tops. It's sad. Pretty soon they're liable to charge double for the priveledge plain cause as we all know it takes a special tree to have plain grain.

NOT!! I'm a sumb**** that R8 has more figuring than my R9. Gibson is really going the extra mile to deliver the goods these last few years. Congrats man and hang on to that bad girl!!:band

I just played one at the HOG, with a Duane Allman Hot Lanta Gullwing top in Believer Burst that was just beautiful!
