The SWINGSTER
Tons of new variations on Les Paul
Annihilator flying V

That Swingster looks great. Not so sure about the V, which is odd, because I like V's.

The LP Specials with a KILL BUTTON.

Also new Wilshire Pros look totally sweet.

A big hollowbody and two Gibson designs. Is there no end to Epiphone's daring innovation? I don't really have a problem with Epiphones, I've even owned a couple and they're solid but come on... We're not exactly talking about the cutting edge here are we?

Still kicks the crap out of Gibson.

dude, they acutally put effort into this shit. i love it.

Les Paul Ultra II - fucking satin-ass neck, a nanomag pickup for acoustic sonds with it's own eq, stereo or mono ouput, belly contour and chambered mahogany body

The Les Paul Tribute models have fucking '57 classic pickups, coil tapz, and come with hardshell cases for $800. $100 hardshell case. $200 pickups. WOW.


The V has fucking composite fretboard, kill switch, and fucking evil devil inlay

The swingster has the bonertown neck thing that looks amazing.

The Les Paul PRO/FX has a floyd rose and shit

I hadn't noticed this. this is an awesome guitar. like, really cool features.

For reals! I was going to say I know they make a black one too but that's even black transparent foto-flame-burst. ick.

Even if they just made it a burst with no flame or at least natural looking flame.

For now if you want that kind of versatility in a guitar this is $50 cheaper and way cooler imo

Wilshire Pros are the coolest thing they've made this year to me.
