My dear boy, you are misguided. Please, avail us as to your weapon of choice, so that us Gibson (and Epiphone) players may join you in mockery!

Mock all you care, won't change my opinion one bit (anymore than yours will be changed by my opinion).

True, they're not making much music but the idea was cool.
Also wish there was real video rather than the slideshow.
Keep your eye on the birdie !
