Is it just me, or in a quick read of the post does anyone else's mind want to add an n to that sentence?

I didn't think I'd need to be quite that descriptive, but yes
My first read I thought "That's a bit harsh, BG is a nice guy, just a bit built for comfort, like me...".

Nice article explaining why Gibson went broke while Fender didn't.

Just looks like a les paul classic but with black rings.
I could bang on and on about why this is dumb, but the simple point is, if they made $1300 guitars, people would buy them.

That Slash guitar is quite boring looking. For that kind of money, where is the nice stripey maple? Gibson can stick it up their arses.

WTF....
Gibson have been really turning me off over the last few years. which sucks.... cause they are putting me off even playing my own Gibbo's (which are beautiful guitars) - I shouldn't let emotion get in the way... but thats how guitarists work huh? 13kUS...... Would of rather purchased grants pre CBS strat any day.

Well it has brazilian rosewood fretboard and these haven't been cheap for a while. A 2018 BRW R9 is like US$8k or something? The other few grands probably goes to Slash.
