I actually dig the color, and I'm tempted at $1000 off, having owned a lot of LP copies at various levels, but never an actual Gibson (though have had a couple of Gibby SG's over the years), but was actually looking at other guitars.. trying to talk myself out of this one and having a hard time. If it were the white plain top it'd already be ordered. 🙃

Oh well; I suck at guitar anyway. 🙃
I did email Sweetwater asking if they're expecting any more, or for that price to be continued if/when they do get more, or if it's possible to get on a back order/wait list, and my "sales engineer" reached out and said that it's discontinued and there will be no more. Bummer.

The best guitars I ever owned were bought used. In fact, the greatest guitar I ever owned was a Gibson Flying V I bought from a pawn shop in Memphis, Tennessee. And I'm from Cleveland so .. that's quite a ways out of my way. But, I booked a flight to L.A. that had an 8-hour layover in Memphis. On purpose. And that V, she just SQUEALED .. and bitched .. and moaned. Dude, I would go in to a studio to record a track and get in to it, come in to the control room and listen to the playback and say, "I didn't play that. I DIDNOT play that." That guitar was SPOOKY. If I ever got stuck writing a tune, I'd just pick that guitar up and she'd tell me exactly where it went. She already knew.
I figured that it was owned by some weirdo in Memphis .. or listening to it scream and cry during a solo .. I thought maybe it was owned by a heroin addict going through withdrawals as he was too poor to buy dope. And the pain of the energy was just passed on through to something else that was once alive .. that wood in the guitar. A wavelength we have absolutely no way to measure and probably never will .. but an emotional energy that is transferred through living things .. and only things that lived. Because there was guitar solos .. MANY solos .. and I'd listen to the playback and go, "I didn't play that. IN FACT, I don't think I'm GOOD enough to play that."
So .. remember my words and think about a used guitar of real high quality.
There's somethin' about 'em.
After 50 years I've learned .. there's somethin' different about every one of them.
And a new machine is blank.
It's got nothin' to say, no stories to render and no vibe to feel and use to your advantage.
Straight Up.
