At first I thought you were putting us on, Mike. But it appears to be the real gaudy thing.

Wonder how big the market for this thing is, after all, somebody has to buy it or Gibson would not have bothered to make it in the first place.
But this opens up all sorts of interesting possibilities. How about a guitar commemmorating the New York Yankees in response to their recent World Series win.

Spaw,

I guess I missed it the first time around. Yesterday, three different people e-mailed me the link.

No problem Mike....I think anything that, uh.......whatever it is, deserves another thread!!

BTW Mike, I only caught about half of your show, but it was really good the other day. Also, I noticed (for the first time) the info at the bottom about recording the show. I guess I must have missed it before or something. I'll give it a try next time around.

Spaw,

Thanks. I really enjoy doing theme shows like that and Nora Guthrie was a great guest.

The taping instructions are for grabbing the show off the air. I've never heard of anyone trying them off the Internet. Let me know if it works.

Yup that's naff from Planet Naff. To maintain a fair and balanced market they should bring out a Satanic version with Hellfire glow from inside the sound hole and serpents up the neck. We could all buy one and head off for the Crossroads to sell our souls.

I just don't know what to say! I am sure it is a wonderful work of art ... but seems to appeal to a very small audience!

I guess you don't want to play that one wearing your silver and turquoise belt buckle and studded Levis jacket. It's probably a really great guitar... nothing wrong with it that a power sander and a new fingerboard couldn't fix. Funny that they're putting it in the Gibon Bluegrass Showcase, I've never seen 'grassers play an f-hole archtop.

Oh well.

Kendall, I'm sorry about your experience with Americans, I've been lucky enough to encounter a few who tasted pretty nice.
