mountain2012 Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Not me. I don't like the dumbed down nature and lack of detailed specs. I hope this is temporary and they add to the pages. I don't want to have to email customer support for information that should be readily available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
665 Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 I don't like the new products period I mean, they messed with the classic speed knobs and made them UGLY (they could have sold the grip knobs as an extra option I suppose...), they no longer have the nice model names of studio, standard, custom, etc... they have an ugly 12th fret inlay But yeah, there aren't any specs yet either. It's still in its infancy considering the models are just about hitting the shelves right now, but it would be nice to know more before they come out. Either way, I do not think I will be buying a brand new 2014 Gibson this year, I am very dissapointed with the lineup and new "features" gibson is offering.

NHTom Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 There are actually a couple of 2014s that I'm very interested in. I WILL be buying a new one this year. It does bother me that specs are very hard to come by. Also, where are the other models? Explorer, V's, Firebirds, etc? Seems stupid that the "2014" models don't have specs posted and "2014" is six days away....lol. NHTom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil White Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 I thought everything was going to have the minetune but after seeing the new les paul std plus without it in blue I'm excited for this year. Too bad I just got an awesome 2013. Ahhh. Gibson your making me poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surreal For Real Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 I think they should have kept the 12th fret a trapezoid and simply had the writing in that, no shape change needed. I don't like faded, or anything extra at all...but that's just me. Give me the bare basics in electronics and let me make it happen... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveFord Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 It's encouraging that they've got some good lower priced models. I'd like to see the ES series fall in price a bit so that buying one is a large purchase (like it used to be) and not a major one (like it is now).
