Just a tad Ridiculous....

[line6man]

Ok, does someone want to explain this to me?:

Tears of laughter are streaming down my face at how fudging ridiculous that is. :tard:

Uh, yeah... how are you supposed to get the high E string end out of that without taking off the pickup mounting ring?  I didn't understand this guitar before, but now I REALLY don't understand.

the mounting ring has been chipped a bit to allow the high e out. still a stupid design.

Well ... you can't get everything for $25,000 now can you? You just always want more ...  :toothy10:

"As for that gibson though... I think its kind of weird that they're marketing em as played by jeff beck.. and making 50 of em. I wonder if they're going to line em up and if he's gonna run by with a pick, or what. haha"  = EPIC  :laughing7:

Got some pretty funny images of that in my head right now...  :laughing11:

With Jeff Beck, it would be running while spanking them each with baby powder!!  :icon_jokercolor:

Forget that, how the hell does it even intonate?

The guitar is pretty much unplayble, between the intonation, the trouble you would have setting the action, the buzzing you would get from the strings buzzing against the stop bar, and the string spacing going all over the place any time you strummed it hard.

Guitars are meant to make music in my book. A guitar that does not make music is useless.
It's like going to the hardware store and instead of spending $10 on a good hammer, you spend $100 on one that's broken in half. :dontknow:

Broken by someone..
FAMOUS!

Ha, there was a guy who bought a $10 hammer to break into a shop and steal a $9 bottle of wine. He left the hammer  :doh:

I wasn't seeing what the big deal about this guitar's price was, as really, it is meant for show not for go.  I also thought of how a Reventon sells for around $2 mil and nobody bitches about that...and then I read this line.  Sure, you pay that for the Lambo and it's probably intended as a collector's item...but if you want it to burn rubber, it can in spades.  And a guitar that you can't pick up and make cool noises with...is just useless.  Thanks man...not sure why I didn't see that before.
