Absolute utter junk, like all new Gibson designs. Pathetic. I honestly want them to go bust now, it's time someone bought them out, sacked their designers and got them back to making guitars that people actually want to buy. This is just abysmal.

I don't dislike it and I've seen way uglier Dean guitars.

Wasn't that a GOTW a while ago?  Or something very similar.

OK.... I like the korina, I like the gold.... I see what they were trying to do with the Les-Paul-meets-Moderne thing.... but the control layout is just cretinous.

BKPs I've Got:  RR, BKP-91, ITs, VHII, CS set, Emeralds

Awful. I'm assuming it will be available for many thousands of pounds. The worst control layout I have see in a long while, it's almost like they were placed at random by a child.
I think I hate being indecisive.

I'm not even going to check the Gibson website. I know this monstrosity will have a 9/10 rating and a shedload of enthusiastic comments courtesy of Gibson's marketing men. Then I'll get angry and want to stab someone.

Yikes, didn't even notice that. Is lambda of some special significance to this model?

Do they like the idea of losing money? They do a few good things then just seem to lose it completely!
