Would love to hear some of your thoughts. I'm not trying to stoke any flames of what guitars are better than others, but just trying to satisfy a curiosity. The short answer is no, not all high-end guitars appreciate in value over time. It's also not necessarily true that all Martins and Gibsons appreciate over time.

It's not made by Gibson in the USA and therefore not a Gibson Les Paul. However, the Orville by Gibson's had Gibson pups and a high build quality. IMO they are a very very good copy, amongst the best you'll get...
