Have we talked about these Gibson nightmares?

[Peen Simmons]

What’s weird about these is that the aesthetic is OBVIOUSLY very 1970s...but the ‘70s, and certainly the ironically fugly ‘70s are not very in at the moment.

 

[Wyatt]

Nah, that graphic is pure ‘80’s.

And the ‘80’s wasn’t a strong decDe for Gibson sales, maybe they are tryting to recapture it.

 

[VoidTerraFirma]

I’ll just leave this here.

It is like they ran out of red paint after the bankruptcy austerity measures. I fucking hate the unfinished burst and the front to back fade finishes.

Another special edition pile of meh from Gibson.

This.

 

[Grant Harding]

Procurement accidently ordered 1000 cases of masking tape instead of 100. When life gives you lemons...

 

[Tiltsta]

I'm waiting for the boogie van guitars to go on clearance. Can't be long now.

Also, I suspect Gibson makes these in super limited numbers just to get the free press coverage. No publicity is bad publicity and all that. They probably made ten of each finish and got tons of discussion out of them.

There are hundreds of crimes committed in Nashville every year.
These are some of them.

 

[cvogue]

Perhaps they're targeting the coveted A-Team demographic?

I actually kinda like that one...

The first date with my wife (March, 1978) I was dressed not terribly differently (powder blue baggies, qiana shirt and platform shoes.) I am so grateful nobody took a photo - it would be potential blackmail material!

You should be grateful you got a second date.
