I was perusing my recently arrived music store catalog and I noticed the new Gibson BFG http://www.americanmusical.com/item--i-GIB-LPBG-TD--src-Y0604GL0GOOGLE00.html?gclid=CLnkofa0y40CFQ_ThgodR2HlRg#

All I could say is WTF??? Unsanded top, no binding, no inlays, no pickup rings or the ring around the PU selector, rough woody knobs no TRC and some kind of toggle switch without the toggle.

I've finally accepted the "distressed" models everybody is selling now. (Actually those baffle me too but that is a subject for another thread) but this is just too much. And they want almost a grand for it. Who would actually want something like this?

As a Les Paul lover (I have a Les Paul Custom, and firebrand which is homely in it's own right) I have to say that is the most homely thing I have ever seen.

This thing looks like the guys at the factory knocked off early to have a few cold ones and sent it to shipping with no one catching it wasn't finished.

Put me down for 1 against.
