Gibson CS Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 I have just noticed the Les Paul Standard double cutaway has been scrapped. All sites I have visited say its been discontinued. Geez not another beautiful model gone. Those guitars were sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geez not another beautiful model gone. Those guitars were sweet. Well that's how Gibson does it' date=' right? Now DC's are collectable. Hey, you can always get one off Ebay right? Thank god for Ebay. I bought all three of my LP's, my strat and my Peavy bass off Ebay. Sold two LP's and a ES137, bought [i']and [/i]sold a Flying V, an Explorer, an Erelwine Chaquita.....there's more I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibson CS Posted February 20, 2008 Author Share Posted February 20, 2008 I wouldnt buy a pencil off of e-bay. Too many things can and do go wrong. You never had any problems? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tulsaslim Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Yeah, it looks like they're dropping the LP Standard DC & the DC Pro in favor of a new DC I've seen on MF. The new one has a AA top (as opposed to the AAA on the others), binding on both body & neck, and 490/498 pickups and sells for $100 more than the other two. I see they've got some DC Pros left. I've got one & would like another one before they're gone. And yeah, I stay as far away from EBay as possible. Nothing but trouble for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeRom Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 We can only hope that this insanity is only temporary and the faded's, DC's and firebirds will be back in the line up soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deftone Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 I wouldnt buy a pencil off of e-bay.Too many things can and do go wrong. You never had any problems? I had one issue with a watch I sold to a 1st time Ebay user, but mostly great experiences. I buy more from Ebay than any other single online retailer. I can always find exactly what I want at the cheapest price around. Sold all kinds of stuff, too. I love it. I just make sure the seller has a little or no negative feedback and if I'm selling I try to be overly descriptive and answer any and all questions. There's plenty of crooks and cheats out there, but I think most people are honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe other 'missing' models aren't far behind? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
