Silenced Fred Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 pretty much just I just plan on getting a Fender Strat, no offense Gibson, just stick to Les Pauls and the sort Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichCI Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Oy... What crackhead bean counter at Gibson thought that they could sell Strats as "Authentic Hendrix" when even the newbiest of newb guitar players knows that Hendrix played FENDER Strats?

Andre S Posted September 23, 2009 Author Share Posted September 23, 2009 Seriously, what is with this? GIBSON is copying FENDER???? and for 300 no less! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Don't they already sell a Hendrix Flying V? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andre S Posted September 23, 2009 Author Share Posted September 23, 2009 Don't they already sell a Hendrix Flying V? Yea, but who made the V? Gibson. But who made these new guitars originally? Fender! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Californiaman Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 No, no, no, no. Looks like the Janie and the Hendrix Estate is short of money again. Now they're soliciting his logo on what... the Gibsocaster? Shame on Gibson for even going along with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andre S Posted September 23, 2009 Author Share Posted September 23, 2009 I don't get it? Whats not to get? It appears Gibson is copying Fender's Strat and marketing it as a Hendrix Strat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichCI Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Gibson engineers designed each Jimi Hendrix guitar with one central question in mind: What if the world’s greatest guitarist was still alive today? What guitar would Jimi Hendrix be playing? Probably a Parker Fly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thundergod Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 That gives me gas (not the kind that makes me want to buy gear). Me too. WTF gibson?

RichCI Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Or my stratocaster... Nah. Jimi would have moved on by now; he was a creative and inventive sort and I doubt he'd stick with the same old guitar after nearly 40 years. I'll bet he would embrace modeling too.

six-string Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 janie hendrix is CEO of Experience Hendrix. she may be family and she does have the legal right to the Hendrix estate. but that said, she is willing to slap the Hendrix name on just about anything and sell it. its all about the m-o-n-e-y Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibson CS Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 is that the new "Experience Greed" model? In this cost sensitive economic environment, I'll have to wait for the more affordable plywood Zoot Suit version from Epiphone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
