Gibson Robot Les Paul’s – Love ‘em or hate ‘em?

December 2nd, 2008 by buddyhawke

If you haven’t seen them at the local Guitar Center yet, the Gibson Robot guitars are now on sale and causing quite a bit of discussion. I’m still on the fence with them because I’ve always appreciated traditional Les Paul’s to the more “modern” models they are cranking out at Gibson (like the Les Paul BFG crap sandwich). They seem to keep the integrity of the instrument while adding the robot tuner system. Is this good enough for you to spend between the one and three thousand they are asking for them?

Is the Gibson Robot Les Paul a step in the wrong direction, or do you like the use of technology?

    robo tuner is for tone deaf people only. They should sell their guitar and take up knitting
