Default NUGD Gibson hollow body



I'm not sure what exactly I have but I like it a lot.

Any thoughts from the group?

Circa 2010 Gibson Midtown Standard, another one of those nice little "too much guitar for the money" instruments they produce every so often...

Use it well, often, and LOUD...

Your mystery model looks great, and an Epiphone 339 with two P90 pickups that I have still gets a fair amount of playing time.

There are days (the ones with "Y" in them) when I think the P90 is the single greatest, most versatile pickup type ever.

Very good, Steve!. Gibson Midtown Standard has a nice ring to it and its from 2012. Loads of fun and my second P90 Gibson. I'll post a pic of that one later today.

That’s one good looking guitar! All stripped down and just the bare necessities to get the job done. I like that.
Enjoy your new addition.

One of the same reasons I like the Godin CW II, also volume/tone/3-way ; only thing I'd change on the Midtown is to swap the 3-way to where the volume control is - I need the ability to change pickups on the fly more than I need rapid volume adjustments...

Congrats! Looks awesome. If money was no object I’d get a Gibson hollow body. That one in particular looks swell!

Is it a CS 336? I had one from the 90's and it looked just like it.
