imagine if the numpty that owns Gibson was half as nice...
I just watched it again and it's actually 90% of ebony that was being rejected due to streaks.... all because we had set the expectation it had to be black
very smart business move too.

Reason enough to destroy the planet and everyone on it.
There is a very clear reason why some individuals deserve our respect and others don't.
I do like him a lot though, comes across as a decent, high integrity enthusiast turned business man with a good slice of innovation built in.

Who knows, someone who actually cares about making the best product he can might decide to do something sensible like reinforcing the headstocks on the standard ranges as well...

I think he'd understand the importance of Gibson's heritage and act accordingly. I'm confident it's possible to make LPs that satisfy traditionalists and meet modern standards. I also think Gibson could expand on that gently - no Dusk Tigers, but exploring territory a bit like PRS's range.
The main thing would be to get quality sorted. From received wisdom on the inferweb (and having owned just one Gibson and played maybe half a dozen others) I get the impression that consistency isn't quite there.
