Members soldierblue Posted August 21, 2009 Members Share Posted August 21, 2009 I disagree. I think that when chicks see that guy playing zoot, they'll be like "Oh, that's more money that he's spending on a flashy guitar that he could have spent on me." More like... "Oh, he must have spent quite a bit on the flashy guitar, I bet he has more." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members guitarman3001 Posted August 21, 2009 Members Share Posted August 21, 2009 I think they'll see the rainbow guitar and just figure you're gay and trying to make some kind of "pride" statement.like I said....Blue Oyster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Belva Posted August 21, 2009 Members Share Posted August 21, 2009 I built something with flash. And I've posted pics of it. It's enough of a converstaion starter that, when they find out I built it myself they wanna find out if I'm as good with something else as I am with my hands. The Zoot looks like puke when you're on acid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Belva Posted August 21, 2009 Members Share Posted August 21, 2009 As far as a conversation starter, agree about the Zoot. Like I said I know first hand about this. Damn! I've been outflashed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members pink freud Posted August 21, 2009 Members Share Posted August 21, 2009 Sadly, even though I keep teasing him he is probably right, my wife still mostly refers to guitars based on color and if they have a "kickstand":facepalm:I had a GF that thought my clear-coat figured maple top schecter had "a nice paintjob" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members headless Posted August 21, 2009 Members Share Posted August 21, 2009 I hate to do it (because I hate that damn thing), but I agree with the OP's statement. It's the whole, brightly colored male peacock syndrome. I don't understand it, but is just "is". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mondaymonkey Posted August 21, 2009 Members Share Posted August 21, 2009 nah, I think a nice relic'd guitar will get you {censored} though. Nothing screams "{censored} me right here and now" than a dirty, banged up and abused guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Elias Graves Posted August 21, 2009 Members Share Posted August 21, 2009 If the peacock is ugly, it serves to follow that the hen attracted to it will also be of a substandard variety. (I have to keep coming up with something, as I hate that guitar so much.) On a more rational note, the construction techniches used are innovative and logical. Laminates are a great material. Their approach just reminds me of carmakers who feel compelled to advertise "turbo" on the badge. Put a snazzy solid color paint job on it like pelham blue and I'd seriously consider one.

Members GAS Man Posted August 21, 2009 Members Share Posted August 21, 2009 I think they look pretty cool.I'd like to get one, but I'm trying to cut back on my GAS indulgences. Debt will do that to you.But it might be a bit on the bright side (laminate body w 496/500), but with some good tube overdrive, I'd bet it'd be a bit'O fun.

Members pink freud Posted August 21, 2009 Members Share Posted August 21, 2009 I think the black one would look cool if it just had the black colored wood as a single piece top. Transparent black over wood grain is always cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members IanAlderman Posted August 21, 2009 Members Share Posted August 21, 2009 I like the Black/White and the Red/Black ones, and that's about it. I'm tempted to get one for my separation/birthday present to me and from me- it's cool in a late 60s acid trip type deal... But honestly that's about it. If I got one, I know that I'd be playing Sabbath and The Sword, and that's pretty much it. It'd be a sheer waste of a grand for playing maybe 8 or so songs. I wonder how long Gibson will be making these? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
