Looks like they just dropped them back to what they were before the annual price hike.

I played the 2018 Gibson Firebird the other day (I think it was around 1500.00) . and I thought it was terrible, that vintage neck profile and radius felt like imports I used to play as a kid in pawn stores. Gross. Also, the tone didn't really jump out at me as a Firebird.

Hmmm....so any price drop that involves merely going back to a point the guitar was priced at any time in its history is not a real price drop......hence if a Standard is not dropped to a price cheaper than it was in 1976 when the standard was 'officially' introduced, somehow people are being cheated......

I really think that with much more affordable guitars on the market from Fender, Reverend and even Harley Benton, these guitars are seriously over priced. When you can get a made in the USA, hand made, made to spec Keisel for $1K, why would you even consider buying a $2500 assembly line Gibson?

I’m not happy unless the price is twenty percent below the manufacturer’s unit cost.

Give me the same materials and construction, and I will buy several. Currently, a 1959 VOS reissue with a Brazillian fretboard is about $10k.

I didn’t say it wasn’t a real price drop or that anyone was being cheated, nor did I say any time in its history. But it is conspicuous that in order to sell them ultimately the price doesn’t change much.

I just built a Kiesel CS6 (LP style) and it came out to $2500. To Kiesel's credit the board is ebony and the top is flamed, but the binding is only painted on.

Right? Let me go play my 335 and GA 75. Might as well order some strings from GC next time too.
