I saw this yesterday so mark is definitely not tripping lol

The guy is aggressively on message eg "so we have stacks of bodies here in different shapes" (interrupts "...different shapes, all of them iconic")

Link returns "Error 503 Service Unavailable"

Is that a code for Gibson's QC?

Weirdly it's an unlisted youtube video - here's the link though.



And here's the old one from 2012

Interesting comparing it to this

Even in 2019, the Gibson process looks a bit rough and ready compared to Musicman and PRS.

Exactly I’ll take my soulless MODCAT barcoded CNC’d and QC’d to the nth degree from start to finish over this. Although my 2017 Les Paul is probably the best Les Paul I’ve played in terms of fit and finish. So they have improved in recent years. When I bought my first Les Paul In 2003. I went through 13 guitars to find one with a decent fit and finish.

Yep. Feels like a soulless place.

Exactly the same, saw that, then saw half an hour remaining, then got on with my life.
