The downside of buying Gibson custom shop, is it's always risky to take them to a gig.
I have a 67 SG that I bought back when I was playing regularly in bands and it is so beat up that I keep it just for the memories. It would be painful to have that happen to a custom shop guitar.

could you imagine? not even worth the risk, although i would bet there are some very good luthiers who can work some magic if need be, but you still know.
that epi p93 is wired uniquely, that center pup is not activated by the 3-way switch, it's always on, just have to turn it *off* via volume knob. i busted my rear trying to make that guitar work, the goldtop irl is unreal, like a beautiful blonde, mesmerizing. it was the triple pickups too that attracted me.
but with the music i like to play, a fully hollow electric is prolly gonna have to happen, i might swap out the ps 72 for one, but the more i read about that one, mij, along side only 1 other 6 string made there, that being a fenedr custom shop, i can't recall which model, but it's in that $5k range, i would like to hang on to it just in case it appreciates in value,
+ it plays the best of any guitar i've ever played, it's amazing, i'm often times kinda amazed that i'm hitting some notes when i do on the 72, doesn't happen near as much on any other guitar yet.
