Gibson cant afford him. Because all you knuckleheads support asian guitars, Ibanez has 10 times more $$ than Gibson.

Just funnin' ya - I like your passion for supporting American guitar companies - I unfortunately don't have enough money on hand to, but I'll own a Gibson someday. It may be used, but it's sort of a dream of mine to own a Gibson someday.

It's not that Gibson can't afford him. It's because he is contractually obligated to only play Ibanez guitars live (hence, he's a sell-out).

BTW, it's not our fault we "support asian guitars". For most of us, they're all we can afford. I blame Bush!

Uh, oh, I dun gone and turned it into a political thread, therefore it should be nuked!

Re: Ibanez Fartcore.

Americans invent everything. The computer, the tv, the electric guitar, etc. etc. wish instead of trying to copy everything, they would just try to come up with something original.

Actually, I'm not exactly sure what you're getting at? Are you talking about quality, or the fact that they're MIC?

...either way, the answer is 2.4 (for the MLP vets).

Re: Ibanez Fartcore.

Let's see....the lowest price American made hollowbody costs how much, exactly?

Out of the range of many, if not most, players. I think Ibanez and Epiphone have a pretty decent niche with the Artcore and Dot series guitars.

Re: Ibanez Fartcore.

I know he's a troll but...

Why am I supposed to shell out that much money for an "american made" guitar If I can get a Japanese, Swedish, German, British and sometimes even Korean made guitar for considerably less?
Simply because it's american? Come on...globalization is in full effect and indirectly supporting another economy is like supporting your own.
(Especially with all the US companies only employing US workes in the tertiary sector and outsourcing the rest to other countries!)

Dont know about you guys but id die for a ES-175...those things sound amazing. Way better then any hollow Ibanez, but the Ibanez guitars are pretty damn good for the price.
