Savvy, they discontinued the Chuck Berry model and kinda of substituted this, even though the specs are a bit different era of 70s. But do you want the Chuck Capt'n hat or the Zaire flag? Rock N' Roll.

Oh dear..
So Gibson has dropped the ball in recreating the “Rumble” specs..
if you’re paying 10g’s for an artist guitar.. it’s gotta be 100% correct.. as per the original.

Why would they use an incorrect bridge?
Why paint the neck??
Why not use the 74 pickups?

I can’t stand Trogly’s voice on the channel, but I appreciate how in depth he goes on the guitars.
