It fits in the life style brand image thing - looks a bit like someone in the Alice Cooper Band might have played. Can't get too aggravated about this, obviously a one-off publicity stunt. If someone has the money and wish to buy this - fine with me, I hope it provided some jobs with Gibson along the way. Most luxury stuff is labor intensive, that is the best thing about it IMHO.
If it had been a bass I would have had to reinterpret my definition of not collecting for fins though ... Danke Henry, for not blowing my wallet.
Actually, I'm not much of a fan of jewelry in any shape or form, man or woman. Much like chrome, it only distracts. I'd die a death with a bling-bling watch, I can't even stand gold except as hardware on some types of basses and guitars.
