I don't think it's really that bad. People just like to bitch about Gibson. I mean obviously the pinstripes are lame, but I've always been a sucker for heritage cherry. I'm not a huge fan of the upper horn; it looks a little too scooped out. And as a taller person, I'm worried the body might be a little small for me, but it's a great set of electronics and it has the cool diamond inlay for not that much money.

tl;dr y'all are bitches

It sounds good, I don't really think they were aiming for the demographic I (and probably most of us) are in.

The natural one looks good, not a fan of the cherry or black. Too bad about the vibrato but if they start giving these away like they did with that reverse flying V sign me up.

The hardware looks good but I couldn't get past the looks.

yeah and it would also match your collection of hot sauces and shirts with flames on them.


It's...there's interesting ideas but that pinstrip abomination pretty much sums up everything that's wrong with it.
