That always scared me too Wade - I did a lot of research and read a lot of reviews and right back at the very beginning of 2020 the reports coming out of NAMM about the new Gibson Historic series were all overwhelmingly positive.
I liked the way the Gibson focus is on the straight acoustic sound with this series - I guess that's like the Martin Authentic series?
We survived the fires here and my wife told me to 'go for it'.

She also happens to have been born in 1957 too.
