Title: Where to buy the Gibson Advanced Jumbo
Post by: foma on November 06, 2013, 10:35:55 AM

Hi there! Inspired by Jarle's post, I started this thread. It's not about buying the guitar, but about selling.
I have this beauty and I think of giving it good home, because I want to go electric and buy a Les Paul actually.
I just wonder maybe somebody on AMIT wants a guitar like this one? It's played only by genuine MK fans for years.

Wow, she's a beauty!  Such a lovely patina on the wood.  I hope she finds a good home.

Thanks! By the way, sounds sonically suprisengly identical to all MK's stuff: True Love Will Never Fade, Remembrance Day, Quiet Theme (just the same sound), Baloney Again, meeting with Phil Cunningham video etc. Instrument is from 1997 and sounds amazing. I played it on my 'River Of Grog' cover.

Oh, and it's comes with built-in Highlander piezo-pickup and microphone system which creates mindblowing sound when plugged in.
