Was playable right out of
"Was playable right out of the box. I don’t know if it was setup at the factory or I just got a good one by luck. I have bought a Les Paul standard and a SG direct from Gibson and they had been pleked and setup at the factory. This service is why I buy Gibson and recommend them to anyone who cares to listen. Other manufacturers expect the customer to do setup post purchase. This maybe done by a less skilled person with bad results which are blamed on the guitar leading to lower sales for the manufacturer. Shipping a setup guitar is money well spent by the manufacturer."
