Aw man hasn't this thing gone away yet? 

I'm gettin' sick of seeing it to be honest.

My heart still goes out to this poor thing. I'm a thing person not a people person.

While the shape is horrible in of itself, could the neck and electronics be removed and salvaged so someone could put together a new body?  I know they're not bolt on but someone should be able to do it.

I'd offer 'em two bits for the electronics alone...

I didn't know there was a Heather Mills signature model!

Ok that actually made me laugh out loud

Did Gibson really consider that as a possible model, or did a bandsaw operator just have a slack afternoon?  "Hey, guys, I wonder what this G3 would look like if I just slice it through here? .... .... Oh."

I believe that it actually is rumored to be a real Gibson prototype or short number of basses. A black one was seen as well.

Heather Mills signature model - ummmmph ... 

You guys are a vile bunch.

Yes, in the meantime so many of these have cropped up that Gibson must have been serious about it though it was obviously intended to be released under the Epiphone brand name.

Hey! I could have said Rick Allen signature model - but he's a drummer.
