How do they make these guitars?

Gibson’s R&D department?

that's giving me childhood flashbacks to the seaside.

I think if I got to see one IRL I'd have to control my urge to lick the neck.

Oh, I thought it was just a weird paint job like Eric Claptons 'Fool'

Thats pretty cool, does it have a slighty arched top?

I kinda like the rainbow rock looking one, but I don't think I would actually buy one. Far too many other guitars I would wanna nab instead hehe

Plus I think I would keep salivating and have a strange desire to lick it. :?

Apparently Gibson didn't make the bodies or necks,They are made By Rutland Corp in Rutland VT(they also make guitar bodies and necks for Martin). I guess that this is really just a limited run.

The Rainbow one is soooo nice.
Really nice looking.
(I hate guitars with graphics or, but this coloured wood, is just great.)

Would snatch one if had moniez.

all the weird plastic parts are cool. the clear bobbins and rings. I want a red switch tip like that. even more glaring than an amber switch tip.

Those make my teeth hurt just looking at them. Good lord, what is Gibson thinking? Oh yeah.. the Hendrix Strat.

So what is Gibson's problem as of late... too many meds... or not enough?
