I’ve bought amps and electrics there, but it was my first encounter with Brian and it was top notch.

I’ve been playing for a solid 3.5 hours...dinner break.

What was the Wildwood spec and how does it differ from the 'regular' Gibson banner J-45 spec?

EDIT - Ah i did notice that the thinner finish and use of hot hide glue everywhere are the main differences.

I remember reading your list of candidates and thought you’d end up with a good one. Nice to see you ended up with a great one. Congratulations.

I’ve been really lucky over the years. I had Righteous and Atlanta Discount living in ATL for so long and now Wildwood here.

Congrats and very cool! As far as I have been able to figure the man difference between the Wildwood spec guitar is a thinner finish and hot hide glue used though out.
