Cashing in with a commemorative product of a tragic event doesn't give off a warm feeling. But then again, it's Henry being Henry.
These 'flood' Les Pauls look very appealing & funky...maybe I'll buy one for my cousin Mary...who lives way down in very merry Maryville, Maryland. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M2ZvMOfQ0cU]Fludd - Cousin Mary - YouTube[/ame] ;>)/
No. Threads only become idiotic when they veer off their original topic with posts about penii, vaginii, or poop. For that is the path of the wayward thread.
Don't get me going, my wittle KitTEH! [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GInNteXzr_g]Shit Happens =) Funny FAT guy taking Incredible Poo - YouTube[/ame] ;>)/
This is my personal favourite! There's nothing like a good, honking shit to make you feel like a million bucks. I gotta get me an economy sized bottle of TurboLax one of these days. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wbDiujuv6rQ]Jeff Daniels in the Bathroom - YouTube[/ame] ;>)/
Maybe I'm in the minority, but I think they're really cool looking. Sure, Gibson's trying to make a buck, but it's a good business move. And I think their tagline is more honest than a lot of their more recent gaffes. "Celebrating Survival and the Enduring Resilience of Music" seems pretty sincere to me.
I would have to agree with you on these geetars being cool looking. They remind me of two bowling balls stuck together. They have a funky vibe and look about them. A hit of magic mushrooms would really make these guitars visually stand out for sure, etc. etc. etc. Santana was high on LSD when he played at Woodstock in '69. He said the neck on his SG was moving all around like a snake and he was holding on for dear life. Imagine if he played one of these Flood guitars?:Ohno: The other part about Gibson being more honest and pretty sincere has me somewhat thinking....... ;>)/
Context, my friend. I just meant that this particular move by Gibson does not leave a bad taste in my mouth, unlike most of what they've done in the last 10 years or so.
Especially Mel's little chubby Gibby! I bet that after years & multiple years of alcohol abuse, I would imagine that his spunk would taste like rancid, rotten lemons laying days upon days in the cotton plantation fields of Georgia on a midsummer's afternoon on the 4th. of July...I say, I say doo ya hear, boy? ;>)/
So im the only one who has one? I can smell the value go up by the day! I call it the Jack Sparrow Black Swirl ARRRRRRRR!!
