    So, I got contacted by Peach today after buying mine. It has suffered quite a ding/gouge on a back edge. Peach sent me pics after alerting me to this, well done Peach! Peach have been brilliant in dealing with this, giving me various options, and I have opted to choose another from the next batch due in soon, at the same spec. 

    So, I’m going to have to be patient now. But kudos to Peach, I can’t fault them.

    First Gibson had Rossetti - then they did their own distribution - and now via tFB, every guitar they’ve ever made is sold in a day....

    Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck. I recently bought one from them!
    Mate, just saw their vid on Instagram in which they said they would contact customers who bought reverently and make it right. Max respect to them.

    If they do, they’ve just earned another customer.

    Let us all know how u get on!
    @peachguitarsdotcom is this true?

    I’m much more of a Fender man and I’ve had 2 cs r8s that I’ve moved on. I got my last from Peach and it was lovely, but I’ve got a maybach Lester that’s better in every way. Lighter weight, better finish, better pickups, more resonant. 

    I know all of this, but if a lightweight dirty lemon comes up at that price I’m screwed and I’m trying to explain to the missus who knows I don’t particularly like les Paul’s, why I’ve just dropped £2,500

    I think they share a lot of specs with the former true historics? Could be wrong.

    At that price, if a particular property sale goes through, I might treat myself.

    I could do a bit better..  How about 100 poppadoms and 4 pints of lager?

    Only 29 more...

    When does 'Custom Shop' become 'Production Line'? I remember Gibson saying that there was only 300+ per 'Collector's Choice #' too.

    Just seems crazy to me - I had one of 20 Charvel Legacy Gold Bolt Stars, so that would seem 'Collector's Choice', but 300+...Nah.

    Anyway, back to topic.

    I caved in and ordered one from GuitarGuitar, still a dirty lemon and a cherry burst available there

    Expect about fifty guitars in the classifieds from me in due course!

    Could realistically be my only chance to own one of these from new

    Interesting strategy from Gibson:

    "quick lets sell some old stock to make way for new stock"

    "oh shit, now everyone in the world owns a Custom Shop Les Paul, even those who don't like Les Paul's, who shall we target next"

    Even I've considered one and I know I don't like LP's.

    Not sure I'd put my name down for one before you see/feel/hear what they play like, but I'm keeping my eyes open for when they arrive and I'll be popping down

    I'm glad I sold my R8 earlier this year.  This would have seriously depressed the price I got.

    Ah!, that was you. I swithered over buying the one you bought last night, but decided to sleep on it, looked today and it was gone. Today to compensate for my sadness I just bought the dirty lemon instead

    So is there gonna be a dearth of NGGDs today? Anyone got one in hand yet, or expecting it today? 

    Edit due to brain fart - *substantial not dearth....!

    My head said brake, but my heart cried never.
