This is a 3 part series. Unboxing, Tone Demo, and then my thoughts/my review of the guitar. It's a different format for sure, but let's see how it goes.

This guitar is essentially a replica of the Gibson Custom 63 Reissue SG, but built in a way that most normal players can afford. This is a limited edition guitar that was exclusively available from Long & McQuade in Canada. They had about 250 made for the Canadian market.

If you come across this guitar as a dealer exclusive, let me know! I'd love to see how often these pop up as dealer exclusives.
