"34 years ago I bought my first Gibson and still have it. This SongWriter is my second.It is awesome."
Feature:The electronics are very nice on this Guitar. The MOP inlays and abalone are beautifully crafted. The whole thing is just beautiful. I think rosewood backing and sides must contribute to the melodic full sound throught the tonal range. You must play one to believe it.
Quality:
Again. I have a B-45 Gibson (1967) that I bought used in 1970. It has seen some tough times and weather variables and it is still beautiful and strong. I now hold this brand new instrument and Gibson(34 years later) still seems to have a quality and strenth that will see you through good times and bad.
Value:
Gibsons are worth every penny you pay, new or used. Just play the "Songwriter" and you will see,..........No comparison.
Desirability:
Buying a High quality guitar is like getting married. You fall in love with the right one. I'll have this guitar until I croak. Just like my Gibson 12.
Sound:
The songwriter delux is awesome! I have played a 1967 Gibson B-45 12-string for 34 years (I bought it in High School). When I decided to get a really good 6-string to add to it, I tried Taylors, Martins, and several Gibsons in the $1,500 to $2,400 range. When I got to this Songwriter-Deluxe and played the first chord, I knew "this is the one". The bass response is fantastic. Very clear and full. Actually the whole mid-range and treble has this same great "fullness" that none of the others pocessed. I bought it on the spot.
Support:
My 1967 Gibson has never needed service. I expect the same with this one except that I know the electronics will proably need some work from time to time.
Overall:
As previously stated. I have been satisfied with the Gibson I bought in High School over 30 years ago. I expect I will stay in love with this on as well. It is just the BEST.

"Gibson Songwriter Deluxe Cutaway-Acoustic Electric"
Quality:This is an absolutely gorgeous instrument.
Value:
I believe I paid the right price for this instrument.
Sound:
I've played most of the Gibson line and for less than $2000 this was the best. I think it's pretty close to the SJ200.
Overall:
Until I can afford an even higher end Gibson I'll play this one.
