Bentley Guitar Studios - Parkville , MO

Unread post by GrateDMB21 » Sun Sep 04, 2005 4:04 pm

Wondering if anyone living in Missouri knows about this place. I was looking to buy a USED Gibson Chet Atkins SST. Its an early model of the SST. The price is hard to beat and its exactly what I was looking. So, I wanted to get some input before purchasing the guitar (wear, electronics, etc.) Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

don't like the look/design of that guitar very much.

But if you do, by all means...

Just couldnt beat the price. They sent me some recent pics of the guitar and its still in great condition

Does anyone know where I can get the specs on this guitar? Does the original version have the LR Baggs system like the current SSTs? I emailed Gibson about the specs, but yet to get an answer. They're probably busy as can be, so its completely understandable.

Also on a sidenote - Is Gibson slowly discontinuing the SSTs? They seem to be harder and harder to find. I noticed they have been pulled off websites, such as - Musicians Friend, Sam Ash, Music123 etc.
