All these guitars are either '50's or 60's spec right down to the electronics. They are expected to be presented as standard issue guitars NOT limited edition either.
There isn't any pricing yet but they are expected not to be over priced.
I would expect around $2500.00 USD
A '59 double cut Junior will join the line up as well.
As for the totally new there will be the 'Les Paul Modern' and the 'SG Modern'
Gibson surveyed a lot of Pro's to see what it should be. Expect a fast neck with access to the upper frets, maybe even a 2 octave neck an ebony fretboard and a very light weight split pickups with push pull controls. In short borrow the
best elements of the better copy and 'me too' LP's of other American brands.
This is all hush, hush at the moment but in a week we will all know.
I must admit I have my eye on the '59 LP
