Tim Plains Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 Red EDS-1275. I know the one you're talking about and honestly, the first time I saw it I thought of you. I didn't want to touch it because it's "your guitar." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pippy Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 I've never played a twin-neck but I'd like to see Gibson do a re-issue of the '57-'60 ones. Apparenly Stephen Stills has (or at least had) a pair of them. Even wore those hats at the beach.... What a classy guy.... Wouldn't it have been more impressive if that guy swapped the hats around...

Chris told me hed give me a good deal on it...I told him to say no more, I dont need this kind of temptation. lol I noticed the Bloomfield was still there as well, right next to a gorgeous '09/R9.

Tim Plains Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 I saw it from a distance and a few weeks ago. I try not to go near their Gibsons, for obvious reasons. Actually, I try to avoid going there all together. The only time I go now is for the necessities - strings, etc. I wonder what year it is? I remember those listed for $3,100 new in 2007. I wonder what their idea of a deal is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Robot Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 Everytime I see one of these, I see my chiropractor driving a BMW. Nice to look at - too heavy to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to look at - too heavy to play.[/quote'] The weight is a big factor for sure. They are pretty to look at but not practical. Most of the time I sit to play...You cant really sit with that monster hanging on your shoulder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
