Thanks! That's the guitar shop I work at here in Nashville. And I might have to make a clip for you guys. I still haven't taken the old strings off because they sound so good.

Sounds really amazing. It has the deep Gibson thump, and is really rich without any bass boom. She came to me with old strings, and to me they sound great so I'm leaving them on. Someone on another forum told me the string spacing was a little off and I should get that sorted out, but the intonation and playability is fine, so I don't see any reason to worry too much.
