I guess I just like the originals too much... I just hope they won't come up with a reverse Les Paul, I think I would have to stop playing Gibson guitars in that case

Wouldnt a reverse Les Paul just be a left handed one?

(The one that tunes itself) Well, since I am endorsing both, Gibson and Tronical, I have a Les Paul equiped with the Power Tune sytsem and I am about to get another one, none of those guitars is the Robot guitar though, one was a Les Paul Studio, the prototype that they introduced on last years Musik Messe in Frankfurt, and now I will get a Custom, also with the Power tune. But I would also play the Robot guitar, it is a Les Paul after all and the powertune system works perfectly fine, the only thing I don't like that much about the Robot guitar is the finish... hehe, yes, I guess I am a purist concerning Gibsons -------------------- Guitars: various Gibson Les Pauls / Gibson J 45

 I guess the important point is that the tuning system doesn't have any impact on the tone or playability so its not that much of a compromise ...Les Paul is my next guitar for sure, but probably not a robot. -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile

the reverse sg would be really cool, but a reverse lp? Thats just scary. I think the reverse explorer isnt as bad as the v actually, i think the v's really ugly. You know fender made a jimi hendrix strat that was reversed? It was really confusing me when i read about it. It was made so that right handers could have the same experience hendrix, a southpaw, did playing his right handed guitar. Gave me a headache.
-------------------- I spelled my username wrong...I didn't even think that was possible!
Look at the topic for my guitar... Finished Guitar Build Gear: Homemade strat (You still need to look at its topic!) Squier strat (probably going to get rid of it and get another guitar instead) :) Line 6 spider amp (not actually used for anything, just acts as a speaker) Digitech Gnx2 (kind of old, but cheap, and sounds amazing!) |

These things make guitars go out on a bad voice or laughed at!
