Mustaine left Dean and went to Gibson/Epiphone/Kramer

[VMNT]

"Gibson. For that authentic Jackson tone!"

They ditched the greenburst in favor of solid green.

Sick guitar, shit promo. It says a lot to me that they have a cg Vic playing the guitar instead of a real demo. Those grain filler pics in the posts above are totally unacceptable for a $1,000 guitar, let alone $2,800. Also the binding is f'd at that price. And just me personally on A Gibson with binding no nibs, no buy.

But man if they did it right it would be so rad.

It's Gibson. They were a horrible idea from the start. BC Rich is a joke, Dave is still ass chapped over Jackson, ESP/Ltd likely wasn't biting or offering enough, so he basically had Gibson left. He should've just stuck with Dean.

What happened with Jackson?

He wanted to buy Jackson outright and they ended up going to Fender. He's been salty, sour, and surly about it since.

That's a real dude in a Vic headpiece/bodysuit for the hands; the skeleton print wraps slightly over the fingers on top of a black suit to give the illusion that there's no one underneath. However, the absolute dumbest part is that that riff of Hangar 18 isn't hard to play, so why not have the motion line up with the fucking background music?

Gibson putting out an out of touch, weird promo? Who could have guessed!

everyone probably already knows this but in case you don't, watch glen frickers ( spector studios) review of the mustain v .

Because if there's one thing every shit-show guitar needs, it's a ranting, screaming fat guy crying about it on youtube. Insult + injury = no thanks.

And before anybody gets incensed about me putting down body image, I'm allowed. I'm a fat guy myself. I try to keep most of my crying private though. Most.

I mean, at this point you're just describing him accurately.

I dated a fat lady for a while. I remember one day she was coming in to the restaurant I was working at, and I told the server "please let me know when my girlfriend gets here, she's fat and has red hair" and his face was priceless, like he couldn't believe I'd call her fat. Well bud, she is fat.

Yeah, not a fan of his so much. Just passing along info that’s out there.

It's no judgement on you, mate. Fricker is kinda a meme around here. There is a thread about him and Twist His Dick became a running joke.

 

[JimF]

Am I right in thinking the import ones would be Kramer as opposed to Epiphone?
If they bring out Epiphone versions I could be really tempted...

 

[SCJR]

That was ROUGH.

 

[manu80]

yeah that' would be logical...but when will the Kramer be released ?
again, Jackson has a ball right now to release a silver and natural KV but ...no.

MJ Series Y2KV would be immense...

That video is major cringe.

 

[ArtDecade]

You lads are too cynical. That video was awesome. Gibson made a late 80s cheeseball metal video. Headbanger's Ball would show it twice a night.
