I kinda dig it. How much??? y'know...If GIBSON were smart...they could TOTALLY reissue the reverse big headstock and non reverse nickel chrome II's and IV's Tuneomatic bridge placed properly...Kick everyone's as out of the water...But alas.....they have some numbnuts running theat stuff.

I dig it, but not $2299 worth of digging.  Carlo's handmade birds are awesome at much less than half that price.
Cheers
