What is going on with Gibson?
How could they let this get out in their advertising?

I’m on board. I hear they’re stronger after being reset and glued. Should be a common mod.

Ultimate relic! When something like this slips out....make it a feature. Yeah we saw the need. Comes with a stripped rod for an additional fee.
They should have switched to scarf joints.

Scarf joints yes.
My humble opinion-- but given the neck wood used on Gibsons, and the nature of the grain of that wood -- and the weight of the guitar and the grain run-out with a cut like that,
This is an obvious design flaw that a high prestige company like Gibson should have addressed long long ago
OK Now I will run and hide from the flames.
I love Gibbys BTW. I have 2 les pauls
