Amino Moore Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Ok I know some of you are on the same email list from Gibson. As a long time Explorer lover I find the whole idea of this to be, well, oh just look at the link and you will understand a frustration that can't be put into words. http://www.gibson.com/en%2Dus/Lifestyle/Features/introducing%2Dthe%2Dholy%2Dx%2Dplorer/ What are they smoking?
animalfarm Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 It's been spotted. Please click on the "Way too Far" thread which has now been brought to the first page for your benefit....
KYSohn Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 As anumalfarm said, it's been covered. BUT how about this??? Even the headstock is "chambered!"
animalfarm Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Oh, God....It's a TOY. What are they going to do to the Les Paul?
charlie brown Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 LOL! As odd looking as it is, the "V" version (above) doesn't bother me, as much as the other(s)! I do wish they'd have left the center part solid, and kept the neck pickup! But...??? Just hope they'll leave the LP's and SG's alone!! If they want to do something to the SG's...go back to early '60's (wider) beveling and deeper scarfing (inside horn areas). Now THAT would be COOL! CB
Amino Moore Posted February 24, 2009 Author Posted February 24, 2009 Yeah thanks for bringing it forward animalfarm. I've been busy lately (painting bedrooms) and I havent checked the forums I frequent very often due to that. But when I saw that, that, thing in my email inbox I just couldn't stand it. I had to get it out or the bitterness would have eaten me alive. I love my wife so that's why I paint bedrooms funny colors and buy weird art deco home decor stuff. And I also get to do projects like this>>>> http://epi.p3net.net/bbs/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1408
Ricochet Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Batman? More like the Spiderman's Web-signature model.
KYSohn Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Oh' date=' God....It's a TOY. What are they going to do to the Les Paul?[/quote'] Maybe, they will probably drill a bunch of holes size of a golf ball through LP's body and call it "Les Paul Polka Dot Edition!" (Can you feel my creative juice flowin'?!! Boo-ya!!!)

[img']http://img3.musiciansfriend.com/dbase/pics/products/3/6/4/547364.jpg[/img] Wonder how the headstock sounds? "Hollow," no doubt! ("Sleepy," or otherwise!) ;>b Next, they'll put a "nanomag" in the end of the fingerboard...make it "acoustic," as well! LOL! CB
AS90 Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 I dont see the problem, if I had a back problem I would jump on it.
charlie brown Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Well, that neck joint area worries me, a bit...especially, with a hole right behind it! But, maybe it's ok?? Time (and stress) will tell, no doubt. CB
DizzyFingers Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Hey quit whining... those guitars could double as great snowshoes if flipped over with the strings taken off...!
