The earliest Gibson endorser?
« on: February 23, 2015, 09:07:24 PM »
Gibson's Artist In Residence (huh?  :o ) creates the Edgar Allan Poe Les Paul.

If that doesn't float yer boat, there's The Mask Of The Red Death SG or The Raven Flying V.

All I can say is "Nevermore!"  :rolleyes:

Bravo Sir Henry for releasing the Maelstrom; forsooth, you have unmasked a true face, that love of the dark-art that is the works of Poo, er, Poe...

All I can add is that a certain German can breath easy with the thought that there appears to be no Thunderbird re-fashioned as a pendulum to hang over the pit... after all, it might swing back-and-forth to a rhythm, but, it would eventually dive to one side and thwart mine enemy... :mrgreen:

Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

I think they should all be walled up in the Montresor family catacomb with a cask of amontillado.
