Gibson just keeps outdoing itself with stupid designs, this time blatantly sacrificing function for "form"...

I mean, at least it's shaped normally, and I do actually like the color and inlays quite a bit, but I really don't think a guitar with all those holes is gonna sound too spectacular...and more importantly, WHY OH WHY!??!?
 
fucking hell.. looks like something those twats off changing rooms(old uk program..basically, everything was made out of MDF wood) would make if they got asked to design a guitar
 
It's pretty weird that Gibson is responsible to some of the coolest and ugliest guitars ever made... I'm so horny for a white explorer, but all this bullshit they've churned out lately is just pathetic!
 
On closer inspection, this is rather a piece of art than an instrument, it's:

- rare (check)
- therefore expensive (check)
- most likely to increase in value (check)
- provoking (doublecheck)
- of hardly any practical use (check)
- most likely to be owned by a filthy rich musician (probably... *cough* Lars!)
- not so much triggering my interest (yup)

zOMG it IS art!
 
I actually like this design.. not so keen on the headstock but i like the rest of the guitar quite a lot to be honest.
I'll never buy it though since it has holes in it :)
