On the bright side, the more of these ridiculous models they put out, the more cheap ones they have to produce to recoup the cost.
Who's ready for the Marauder studio with burst buckers and silver burst?

Everything about these seems wrong.

There's a natural finish (maple look) one with the black hardware that isn't as heinous. Still not good. So many things off on the aesthetic, still. If it gets cleared out for $600 next November, I might check out if it plays/sounds good, though. I do like the use of the Maestro vibrato, though not in black chrome.

If I can get one of these for cheap (not the pinstriped one) I'd be all over it. If they made it a 12 string with locking tuners and retained a trem system, I'd so pay the asking price. Belly cut, upper fret access, nice woods, semi hollow, lots of tonal variation with the pups. I like it. I like it a lot. Does the world really need more of the same?

anything that the major companies puts out that isn't yet another fucking strat/tele/jag/p-bass/j-bass/les-paul is all good in my book. I just want some different shit out there, honestly. I'm sick of seeing the same 5 body shapes on every fucking piece of gear.

Good to see Gibson putting out a semi-hollowbody for under $1500. Unfortunately, it's this abomination. I could see the hard rocking dudes in Avenged Sevenfold endorsing these and if you act now, you get a $50 gift card to Hot Topic.

About how terrible it looks?
Also, anyone notice this? haha

Really? I thought most people bend notes because they don't want to..
Cmon Gibson...
