"Gibson has long been known for its pioneering guitar designs, and all have set their own standards in guitar innovation. Now, Gibson USA is proud to continue the tradition by adding to the legacy – introducing the new 2009 Limited Run Series Eye Guitar, available beginning April 1 in a strictly limited number of only 350 guitars."
OK I get it - it's an April Fools joke. :laughing7:

gibson should burn in hell for what they've done to themselves
WAY to bastardize a culture you started, I say
fender, too
seriously, warmoth and companies like it are the musical islam that I imagine will eventually take the world over
(I am not, as of right now, a sunni or shiite muslim, it is merely an allegory)
so yeah, go ahead and get busy burning in hell, major guitar companies!
have fun charging almost 700 for a strat, or 1600 for a stingray, or 3600 for a les paul, cuz all the good musician's ain't buyin' it.
not that warmoth implies talent (after all, I've seen a lot of people on here who, by my reckoning, should not even be blessed with such a company)
ANYWAY!!!
that guitar is a joke wether it's literal or metaphorically

Ibanez did something similar with their "Jet King" series a few years back, only Ibanez actually does have a tradition of making cheap, weird Japanese guitars... Can't Gibson really figure out that people play Airlines & Danelectros & Supros as a rebellion against grossly overpriced, ummm, American... umm, Gibsons.... :icon_tongue: $2400 for an imitation P.O.S. crap guitar, oh yes where can I get one? I'll pay extra for relic'ing... :help:

The price is too much.
The color's are wrong. It should have a white body, white pick guard, white headstock, silver hardware, black pups. That would improve it a whole lot.
It's definitely a cross between an SG and a strat.
Would I buy it? Maybe at $600 if it sounded good. At almost $2500, no way.

$500 in a less eye catching colour with no pickguard and I might be interested, although of course it would end up being £500 over here if it were $500 in the US so I'd just build a Warmoth instead.
