Re: gibson menace
Menace, Goth, and all the other flat-black, look-how-counter-cultural-and-dangerous-I-am LP's or SG's and whatever blow serious chunks. That stuff just doesn't belong on a Gibson.
If you want a black LP, try a Custom, or maybe one of the translucent black flame Standards at Musicians Friend. Majestic mayhem...

Re: gibson menace
Not everyone has $2k to spend on a LP with an ebony board. This seies and the Goths have a decent price tag at least.
The Goth series was a nice set. I didn't find anything overly trendy about them. What is so trendy/tough about a flat black paintjob and a star inlay at the 12th? Simple design, that's all.

Yeah, I wish Gibson would make an alder bodied, double-cutaway guitar with three single coils, a volume, two tones, a vintage tremelo and a bolt-on maple neck...
What...? Fender makes that?
yeah but that's a FENDER.......

Re: gibson menace

Re: gibson menace
If they hadn´t been made out of swamp ash, maybe... they sounded like Crap IMO...
I agree... the LP gothic was essentially a "poor man´s LP Custom"... no whacky woods or PU colors, just a satin black finish instead of normal. Great working man´s guitar...
