You forgot "this color rocks", how could you? :P
Uwe's edit: I have dutifully rectified my grave omission.
Basvarken:
I like it. Like Uwe said: it's a nice nod to the Gibson past.
I saw it in Frankfurt at the Messe. The color looks beautiful in real life.
The nice chap from Gibson that I spoke with told me they changed the neckjoint area on purpose because the original double cut EB-0 had a very weak neckjoint. I think that makes sense.
I do miss the pickguard though...

What's not to like about it? It's kinda cute.

"They missed it by this much" - (in a Maxewll Smart tone). Why didn't they use the exact body shape of the original? It does look like the Hammer, Epi Gennesis, Alembic, whatever, but not a Gibson 59 EB-0.
Still its cute in its own right, but so close to what we really wanted, so I vote dissapointment.
This!
I'm surprised that no one made one here yet?
