Angus would love it! And sweat isn’t an issue with the sweet satin finish. Thanks, Gibson, for catching up with satin. Fast, smooth and thin. Should age wonderfully. Plays great. I thought it would feel too thin, as I have both a 55 special reissue and a 50s Standard (both from zZounds!) and they be some thick girls! I found it very comfortable. Glad to have it, I play it. All the time. Gave Gibson the benefit of the doubt, from other Gibby’s I own. Haven’t used support on this, don’t expect to.
