saturn Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 They're only making 1000. I wonder how quick they will sell? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackHawk233 Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 Remove every last bit of "Technology" in it, and remove the pick guard/ add a normal LP one, and it would be a very nice guitar. But since that won't happen, Count me out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daveinspain Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 They're only making 1000. I wonder how quick they will sell? Only a 1000 of the first edition model. After that you can be sure to see the regular production model of it and then the same technology on other Gibson models... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cwness Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 Who would buy one now anyway with the way Gibson after a few months drastically drops the price hosing the original buyer. I remember a resent price drop on the Original Robot and now the Darkfire. Just a bad idea to but something they have been dropping the price on after it's been out a while.

MojoRedFoot Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 To anser a few questions/concerns: MSRP people. It's higher than the sticker price. Yes they have all been sold to retailers and such. Mostly collectors will buy them in the hopes that it is an investment. I actually like the look and features (but I prefer carved top on LPs, not flat). The only beef I have with all these extra bells and whistles is that it there is more that can go wrong and probably not too many people that can fix it. For that reason alone, I would not buy it. If either I or a local repair person can't fix it, I'm not getting it. I will never buy any guitar that can only be fixed at HQ. That's just me.

ChanMan Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 I like it. Not that particular piece of wood, but... I understand the direction they're moving in, I think. We have so much technology available today; one of the current paradigms is to converge it into a single device. Think cell phone/browser/game console/mp3 player/digital camera/HD video camera/modem. I know folks who can't stand it when a newer, better phone comes out. +1 on the "not getting in on the first ones out". Perhaps when they make the Swamp Ash Tiger...

Riverside Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 ...I will never buy any guitar that can only be fixed at HQ. That's just me. No, it's like that for me. too. That having been said, I hope Gibson will send me two of them so I can give them a proper evaluation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FirstMeasure Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 It looks like there were too many Cooks in the Kitchen. Kinda reminds me of a bowl of old Menudo (the soup, not the band). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaxson50 Posted December 9, 2009 Author Share Posted December 9, 2009 Your either going to love it or hate it. On the pro side, nice looking pickup's.

Twiz Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Meh, it's okay. Not really my thing, but someone will probably dig it. I wish Gibson would just concentrate on making some cool variations of the classics. For example, I'd love some SG's in different burst finishes. Or, make an SG Standard with a big headstock like they had in the 70's -I think those were so cool. Anyway, I'll shut up. *Gets down from soapbox* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJustice Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 I wish Gibson would just concentrate on making some cool variations of the classics. But surely this is exactly what they do 99% of the time. And they'll not stop anytime soon. Don't worry' date=' be happy DJ -- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saturn Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Well, the guitar might be useful to someone, IDK. It's not for me. Plus the name is too gimmicky IMO. I would feel a little silly saying "Hey man, check out my Dusk Tiger" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
