Hey, everyone. While on the Gibson website, I stumbled upon a couple new models that I haven't seen before. If this was already brought up, please forgive me, but I thought you guys may want to have a look:

Gibson.com: Gibson Les Paul Studio Swirl

I wasn't crazy about the flood anniversary editions, but I have to admit... I like the Silver Swirl Burst! The gold version isn't bad either.

Gibson.com: Gibson Les Paul Jr.

I think the Pelham Blue for a Les Paul Jr. is a pretty nifty concept, but I'm not crazy about updating the neck to a 60's profile.

It also appears that Gibson brought back the L6-S from the '70s, which is a guitar I've wanted for a while. I couldn't find any info on the Gibson site, but I did find it at Guitar Center. You can check my post about that here:

It's hard to tell from Gibson's pictures. I have a blue Anniversary Flood Les Paul and it looks so much better in person than the pictures that were on Gibson's site. I'm not too impressed with these, especially because my 1st choice would be the blue one, and I already have, in my Flood LP, a blue swirl LP. I'm guessing from experience that they probably look better than the pictures show though.

$699 for the Juniors at Sweetwater.

I may have to get rid of some gear to finance one.

Really dig the swirl ones. I wonder if they'll come to Canada. Prefer the dual-pickup LP Jr's, but I like the blue.
