Free Gibson! ...box. London

It's a box, it's free, and it says Gibson so you know it has the best tone.

NW5 London

May have some packing materials to throw in depending on how soon it goes.

What year is it? That's important.

No, he took the Guitar out.


I want to know the weight of the box though 

Boromedic

Tokai boxes are better, FACT!

Fretbored

Is it chambered or weight relieved?

Do you have the original paperwork for the box, I’m worried it’s a copy

Is it from the 'good cardboard' era?

That’s been debunked - it’s the Gaffa tape that gives it its mojo

That brown packing tape looks after market to me, it should be a single piece of security tape if it's a genuine USA box

Braz or Card board?

Have you got a pic of the rear of the headstock? It looks ok from the front, but…

Every time you post a Gibson without telling the weight, Joe Bonamassa releases a new signature guitar!

I dunno...I think it's a good set-up...if this were one of my early forays into the forum, I'd be very happy with it.

You could say he's...boxing clever

Yeah and that guitar doesn't look great either.
