Hey this is Dylan from the Garage, it was a pleasure meeting you guys!

[@willsei]

Yeah, I was like "hey, that's the dude that replied to a comment I made a couple of days ago...cool guy!" I'll definitely hit you up when I come up!

[@CasinoGuitars]

Dylan!!!! You were the man! I hope all is well and you’re having a great great time over there. We’ll see you again soon we hope and thanks from the entire casino crew!

[@TheTrollMastah]

Wow I was going to comment the same thing!

[@ashleympg]

Hey Dylan! My husband and I met you at the Garage this afternoon. You were SO incredibly nice to us starting in the Epiphone room going all the way to the Gibson room. We finally found a Gibson we wanted to try, but then of course we couldn't find YOU! The other salesperson wasn't as willing to get something down for us to try, so we ended up leaving. On the way home (we are from Alabama) I was like WAIT A MINUTE! I think that was the guy from the Casino Guitars video! All this to say, we will be back, we are in the market, and we will make sure you're working that day. Thanks for being SO incredibly nice to me today.

That wall of flame has to be the coolest thing i ever seen in a guitar shop

[@lueysixty-six7300]

$1K USD To pick your top... it's a steep price tag! You can get an Premium RG Ibanez just for that charge alone! You know the custom Shop team aren't going to pick a dud top.. idk..I can't imagine dropping $12-15K USD on a new Les Paul...at some point a something in the vintage market (70's, 80's, 90's...msybe even 60's, depending on model and year) has to be looking pretty good..with a far higher return.. probably!

[@FunkyELF]

Holy shit, $1k upcharge to choose your wood. You can choose your wood at Warmoth and get the damn thing painted/finished for less than that. I've come to the realization I'll never own one of these out of principal.

[@DeirdreSM]

It is a $195 (on up) upcharge at Warmoth to have the specific top chosen, though, and you only get to see a small photo of it. That's on top of the $75 lam top charge.

[@louderthangod]

But no set neck and definitely no Gibson headstock. If you’re spending 10k on a guitar an extra grand isn’t likely to mean anything.

[@frogbastard]

I totally agree.Choose your slab of wood,and we will charge you an extra Grand.I refuse to be coned into going down that rabbit hole.11.5 grand for the Tom Murphy guitar? Too much hype.Want to age your guitar,leave it in your car one winter night then bring it inside and immediately open the case and Voila,it's been aged.Cost free

[@DeirdreSM]

I'm not a huge fan of headstock shapes and especially not logos on headstocks, so I actually prefer the no-logo aspect of Warmoths. As someone who really falls for specific wood looks, I very often will look at sites' photos of specific guitars to see which guitar I want to buy (which is one reason I bought my Taylor from Casino). I also disagree with you on the extra grand: some of the wealthiest people I've known have been the least likely to go for certain upsells.

[@GraniteSoundtrack]

People can spend how they want. It's their money. But, what you're really paying for in these circumstances is the name Gibson, Gibson Custom, Tom Murphy and Murphy Labs. It's not 1 for 1 guitar to dollar. Never has been for Gibson. Well, maybe in the 50s it was. It's like Harley Davidson.

The prices of the custom and Murphy pieces are absolutely wild. No premium specs (exotic woods, ss frets, etc) even available. Can’t believe anyone does this.

[@sawblade37217]

I agree. I couldn't believe they charge $1,000 just to choose guitar top, especially since the cost of raw materials and glue (could be Titebond II or Titebond III) is small in contrast to the cost of choosing your own top. I also doubt the cost of labor contributes to such a gross increase in cost. I gave Gibson a shot as recent as yesterday and I still don't feel a strong interest in their products, they're just too heavy and the price doesn't reflect the features when compared to other manufacturers.
