Apparently Gibson is not properly blowing out the wood chips when drilling weight-releif holes, leaving the occasional wood chip INSIDE. Damn, would I be pissed.

I've heard of this on the Vintage Mahogany (Worn) Studios

Is this beeing found on (or "in") other models too?

wow.

Loose wood chips bouncing around inside the weight-relief holes.

Suck begets suck. It's a double-whammy.

He looks like a respectable member of the board, though. But I know what you mean, Zhang.

Gibson has turned into a real joke of a company! I seen some Les Paul`s that were almost $3,000 and they were just horrible!!

I've got one of the guitars in question and mine doesn't have this problem.

I've tried $3,000+ guitars from PRS, Fender, Guild, any maker you can name that were dogs. I guess all guitar companies are jokes.

10 years from now everyone will be talking about how the wood chips "added to the tone"...

No no no ... it's not a wood chip. That's what the government WANTS you to think. It's actually a GPS tracking/mind control chip from the CIA and Major League Baseball implanted in the guitar by Gibson to make people shop at Wal Mart.

No blood for oil!
