lol, I was gonna post that.

I like Gibson V's. It's definitely not the first guitar I'd get given infinite funds, but it'd be fun just to rock out on one in some sort of ridiculous Foxy Shazam-eque band.

I like em, but unless you're Albert King or Jimi Hendrix, you look like a dork playing one so it's out of the question.
Plus, I'm still scarred from the days of NWOBHM when everyone had pointy guitars.
Albert was cool as hell.

I love the Gibson style. I've always wanted an all white one with black pick ups... I definitely don't think they're ugly until they get pointy. But personally... I'd rather have...

only guitar with gold hardware I ever liked. I really only like the '57 style with V-shaped tailpieces, though - the ones with standard Gibson stopbar don't do much for me.
fuck the bullshit, I could pull it off, too. one day...
Maybe partying will help.

I have V and like it but it just looks weird on me for some reason. Maybe I am too short. Would love to put a Bigsby on it.
