No HST on all other Gibson Acoustic models!
Full disclosure: I love Gibson acoustic guitars. My first “real guitar” was a Gibson LG 2 back in 1965. I love the historic look, feel and sound of a Gibson…everything about them. I’ve managed to arrange Montana factory tours for most of our staff and we keep a good selection of Gibson acoustics on hand, both new and vintage guitars, at all times. We have also been fortunate in getting Gibson to build a number of special order models for us.” - Grant
