But they're pimping the "user-changeable, rechargeable batteries".......if that's the best selling point they can find to put in a splash screen they're hurting.
The tunings could be nice, but I won't be buying anyway. And what's up with the pseudo-John Cipollina metal pickguard......

Love how his guitar is outta when hes doin the demo for the tone presets.
I'd have expected this guitar to have a compensated nut.
They are just wasting their time. The Robot was a total flop I am surprised they are pursuing this.
I believe the Musicman "Game Changer" will trounce this when its official released.
Thankfully it doesnt do that gimmicky tuning peg bs.
Honestly... why the hell would u need a guitar that thinks it is in tune.

This is a great time to reflect on Les Paul's contribution to music products. Without him, where would Gibson be today?

Weird. Looks like they're taking cues from Apple. Don't they know that we're already at Snow Leopard Mac OS X?
Mac OS X Tiger is old news.

Making "GIBSON" toilet bowls with technologically superior software, incorporating an advanced micro-chip driven "Auto-Crap Sensing Device" that flushes itself when it smells some shit...
(Saving people the daunting (not to mention inconvenient) task of just pushing the flush handle themselves).

All you need to know really.
At least I managed to get a couple of good ones that must have somehow slipped through the net!

WOW!! Those reviews just further reinforce what the public has been saying all along... that Gibson is total shit lately, from bottom to top.

Speaking of hurting... what ever happened to them illegally importing endangered wood from West Africa ? They weren't hurting from the faux Bumble Bee's but, I heard alot of materials & guitars were seized ? That's probably why they're making these instead
