Love PG, but this guitar is dreadfully over-styled.

Pass.

It works for PG, but it’s a vile monstrosity for anyone else

 

[CBHScott]

These are awesome guitars with big fat necks. I had the 100 for awhile, and should have kept it.

Win.

When a guitar makes Paul Stanley's Iceman look conservative, you know it's gone too damned far.

i had a Paul Stanley Ice Man. all black with mirror pickguard. it sounded good, but those things are looooooong. never felt right.
the P.G. looks a lot better, but then again, Paul is like 6'-2"?

 

[Guitar Heel]

I actually don’t hate these. I should, but I don’t.

At this point, I’d like to add that I own 2 Paul Stanley Washburn Sig models...and therefore feel a considerable kinship with mongooz.

Paul Gilbert is an incredible guitar player and a horrible guitar designer...

i don't think he really 'designed' it. he just told them to flip the Paul Stanley upside down and add a cut out. he has a pretty sharp sense of humor.

This is conservative?

Maybe "conservative" was the wrong word. How about "tasteful" - and still, only by comparison.

 

[emmaporkchop]

I actually like these

There's nothing tasteful about it though.

You'll poke your eye out.

Why do I get the sense Paul Gilbert tells the Ibanez builders to do stuff just to see what will happen?
