Edit, what’s the difference between this and the 50K Greeny?

 

[PageSide84]

I got the email and quickly opened it, thinking they were making something in the 8k range . . . . nope. C'mon guys; 20k is hardly a different market segment than 50k. Make something for us regular Joe doctors and lawyers.

 

[gball]

Yeah, I got the Gazette e-mail this morning. Meh, no thanks. Another beat-up guitar for an astronomical price? I fear they are losing the plot.

 

[Brek]

how many? there is a murphy lab in UK

for 8k which is an excellent facsimile of greeny. I'd buy that personally not that I will ever drop that kind of money on a guitar again. not sure why this hasn't sold to be fair,

 

[bluesoul]

More power to them if there is a market and they can sell these kinds of guitars..BUT...it's just a fucking guitar and with no iconic history. Hard pass...I will spend my 20k on hookers and blow!

 

[Steam]

20K for 'KH' carved in mahogany?
No, . . .

 

[Village Idiot]

Hilarious

The difference is that you're paying 30k for a factory tour.

 

[Torshalla]

I do not know how to feel about this…

The price is way too high for a non limited guitar… it is a heavy aged ML, artist series… maybe 12k would position it well versus the regular offering?

At the same time it is also a slap in the face to those who bought the limited version for 50k…
Not cool for CC1 aged owners either… then again i don’t think it will impact CC1 aged value as these were limited….

 

[kelsodeez]

Gibson knows how much wealth has been consolidated and middle class people don't have disposable income anymore. Or at least the same way the top 10% does. These guitars are targeting hedge fund managers, not podiatrists.

[Dolebludger]

How much for one that isn’t “aged”?

 

[mfolet]

Check one out today. Its nice and honky.

 

[Airplane]

If i bought the 50k one this release would hurt my feelings. Not sure if people who buy new guitars for 50k have feelings tho.

 

[SwisherSweets]

I guess the difference is indian rosewood over brazilian and no meet n greet.
