I recently inherited a 2011 Gibson LP Studio Pro from the original owner who hardly played it and definitely did not do any work to it or have anyone else do any work to it. I was shocked at the solder quality when I opened the covers. I have soldered for a living as an avionics tech since Reagan was President so I'm used to not being impressed by solder jobs but these are really bad. I wouldn't expect this from a hobbyist or a sweatshop worker in Malaysia, much less from the USA factory of one of the top guitar makers in the world. I still love it but interested in knowing if this quality is the exception or the rule.
