jnastynebr Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Love the TV Specials. My next LP will be one. Kind of seems like an oxymoron though; Gibson's most simple design with robot capabilities?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franzi Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 It is not an Japan exclusive. The Robot Les Paul Jr. Special has been shipped to and sold in Europe as well recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T Bone Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Guitar Center still has a few in the chain (find a Salesman willing to search their system). I know this because I bought one there a week or two ago. But it was shipped from another store, and had issues when it arrived. It's just been exchanged for another found also in their system. Very cool guitar! (I suggest the extended warranty on this one, it is first generation robot stuff, and they are I think up to Gen. 3 for newer models). Amazon.com also lists them in stock, but recently changed their price from something like $999.00 to $1699.00 ETA: To be clear, Amazon's price was at $999.00 for at least a month, and jumped to $1699.00 overnight a couple of weeks back (about the same time the Studio 50's Tribute was listed... ). I'd still suggest talking to Guitar Center. Price, you'll have to get from them. But I think I got a "fair" deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whoratio Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 I'm actually receiving one as a gift, and I don't want it. The price I've seen is (as T Bone mentioned) $1699.00, and I'd sell it for $1599 if anyone's interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drizzt Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 http://www.thomann.de/gb/gibson_robot_les_paul_junior_ltd_sy.htm There you go - the store is based in Southern Germany, you can check the possibility of shipment to the States Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pohatu771 Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Amazon has them. A few days ago they were actually a Lightning Deal, and sold for $900. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pohatu771 Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Fer serious? Damn. Amazon was my source for the $1699. I was surprised to see it. The clue they gave before it was active was something about a unique guitar from a big name, so I assumed it was the Reverse Flying V, which they've done twice before. I didn't get to see what it was until many hours later, and was very surprised. I would have been upset that I missed it if I actually had $900 to spend.

retrosurfer1959 Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Wow I would probably have bought the robot for 900 Ive seen them blowing the reverse v out a few times but I wouldn't take that guitar if it came with $900 :- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that price was there for at least a month, maybe two. Let me check something... can't find the mint used one that sold on eBay for a bit over $900, which made me aware of these. That should mean it was more than three months ago. At that point, I found them on Amazon.com for the above price. Maybe they just raised it so they could "blow it out' at the lowered price?

Whoratio Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Shoot, really? Guess I'll have to take mine down to $1499, then. My girlfriend says I should hang onto it until they stop making them so I can sell it as a collectible for three grand or so. Ha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha![/quote'] Yea, but with all these new robot guitars like the Dark Fire, Dusk Tiger and 2010 Les Paul Standard, I doubt this one will becoma a collectible, new technology on the mentioned guitars will prevent that. Plus any robot guitars they bring out in the future, by the time that would be collectible enough to increase in value, the technology on them will far surpass the technology on the LP Special. But who knows, maybe it will? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
