Looks like a fine attempt...


Gibson's attempts at a sparkle paintjob:

The blue one is sweet, but doesn't seem as deep as my Roxie.

Re: Looks like a fine attempt...


I was kinda looking forward to something new from the Gibson guitar of the week program last year, but I wasn't too impressed. The reverse V is silly, but i like that they brought back the RD in silverburst. I gotta give it up to Dean for coming out with some cool shapes, the Razorback is too cool looking, and the Soltero and Hardtail look sweet too. I've only ever owned a USA V from them, it was top notch and played awesome. Any Dean fans here?

Boys!! What up Martin, peace bro!
Ya, personally I'm REALLY tired of Gibson and Fender. One of the cooler Gibby's I've played is a GT (I know that you like'em too Tasty) but as cool and timely as it was for Gibson to finally step up to the coil tap plate...IMHO, IT'S STILL A FREAKIN' LES PAUL and I wasn't that thrilled all things considered. It's a Muscle Green ghost flame GT and it's on Fleabay right now if you're interested. DEAN? I owned a USA Hardtail...the one that was signed by Zelinsky, came with the sick case, leather jacket and keychain.....GREAT freakin NECK....but somehow just couldn't fall in love with her and dumped her a while later. I've also been through a couple of Czech caddy's and never fell in love. I appreciate them but Dean just has never been my thang!!

Hey Brutha, nice to see you on here. Yeah, I haven't played a hardtail or caddy, but I really like the shapes. I had a redwood usa V exotic that was actually featured in the Dean catalog. The "V" shaped neck was pretty awesome, but I've never been able to get used to the V shape [body] even though it looks sick! I need more meat in the upper bout. Here's a pic just for some eye candy:

Yikes!
That certainly is a bada$$ top!
Nice looking guitar dude!
I've never been able to get used to a V!
They suck when you're on the couch and they suck when you excitedly spin around on stage and take 2 or 3 of your drummers cymbal stands with you!

LMAO! I know, I can't get used to them either. Like when you excitedly spin around and take two or three of your band member's eyes out!

Not to be argumentative but what does that make GMP then?

Pawnshop = LP

V = V
Firebird = Firebird
Explorer = Explorer

Roxie = Gretsch Jet
