So from what I hear the Epi G3 Mike Dirnt was spotted with is going to be released later this year. I've no other information about it but if true it's really cool. Epiphone yet again building what Gibson won't.

Me too.  But I've never been a fan of the bulbous Ripper/Grabber body shape.

If you think that's steep, imagine what it would cost if Gibson made it. When they said Gibson made the pickups I was thinking, why stop there? Well, I guess price would be the reason.
Contrary to what James Bond says, a good Gibson should be stirred, not shaken.

Silverburst looks like sunburst on B&W TV. I like the look but if I had one I'd definitely rewire the switch to 3 soloed pickups.
