Frequently Asked Questions
The finish is a gloss lacquer, so it's susceptible to wear like any finish, but it’s reasonably durable with proper care and a polish.
The fretwork is generally good for this price point, with smooth edges, although some players might prefer a slightly more refined leveling and polishing.
The SlimTaper is thinner and more modern than a true vintage Gibson neck, offering a faster feel but lacking some of the vintage heft.
