Yea, I thought so too ... but I figured it may have been relevant to some of you guitar players out there.
 
Now, if Ludwig snuck in (sneaked for you anal retentive types) and set-up a kit at the Drum Workshop booth ... that would be unfunny!

Just be glad that Randall Smith didn't start Mesa Boogie by modding Gibson amps. Gibson would have sued him and there would be NO Mesa Boogie today.
I'm glad there is, I have talked myself into buying a Mark V combo. Vanilla with Wicker grill cover. Unless I can get a Wine Red with Wicker for the same price. The weight scares me a little but not enough to stop me.
Yeah baby!

If I was Fender, I would have kept the guitar.

.......uh...No.
 
I thought it was great and was surprised that more people didn't seem to get it and weren't laughing their aszzoff.
They should have put a box of X3 with it.

The X3 idea for some reason seems hilarious to me. A Gibson guitar in a Fender showcase with Sonar X3 is very funny for some reason.
