Mike,
If I'm not mistaken the Gibbs plugs are made with nice soft easy to work Sugar Pine or White Pine or so they appeared to be when I saw them at the show. The pines common to the northeast aren't very tough, a bad combination when you use a screw eye. I didn't realize Gibbs had switched to eyes
. Most of the people that Gibbs competes with now seem to be using cedar and through wiring definitely a better combination and what a surprise the finish lasts longer...
Do the plugs still perform the same with eyes? I noticed that Gibbs weights thier plugs with round tail weight that slips over the wire inside the plug, no wire means no weight as I see it.
BTW thanks for the good information on the Superstrikes.
