Introducing the Gibson Dark Fire

[jca3746]

To tell you the truth, I would find the tuning feature very useful at gigs where you need to tune to a different tunning quickly but I'm just not convinced tone wise. I don't really care about recreating sounds, just making my own tones. And from what I've seen in the videos, it doesn't seem like it has a good normal tone.

[huevometallica]

what is the name of the song?

[CrNcHyFROG5]

Gentleman...... the art of tuning ur own guitar, and finding your own tone has been taken over by fucking robots!!!!! I SAY WE OVERTHROW THIS!!!!! GROW SOME BALLS, grab ur tuner (and or musical ears) and tune th damn thing urself, classic guitar has and always will be king! robots can suck my dick!!!!

[movitmovit]

sooner or later somebody is going to come along who is a master of this style of guitar and does amazing things with it. right around that time three quarters of the tradionalists writing these comments here will 180 and suddenly claim that they were down with it all along and totally love it.

[TheRoCkStArRoYaLtY]

@movitmovit couldn't of said it better myself!! no matter what we do, the future still comes and we gotta accept that its gonna change...

[movitmovit]

@TheRoCkStArRoYaLtY i must admit. i highly biased because i want to own one (or more). :)

[jacknuts22]

Wow... A guitar made exclusively for total douche-bags.

[saitycsart]

if i had to decide of just can having the dark fire or dusk tiger probably the darkfire because it does less stuff i do then the dusk tiger

[cejason]

lol, it was like it was dead and then the bought it to life with a beating heart :P but its one amazing guitar

[Reynoldsw96]

WTF i mean there is a new gibson out there for 17,000 i could buy 17 fender strats which are alot more versatile.

[therockmannumber1]

[jacknuts22]

Good Lord, somebody stop this company before I choke on my own vomit.

[BoeNur]

I'm condused, what is wrong with Gibson?

They have fantastic guitars, I don't see the problem.

[DavidRck]

well yeah he meant that in an expression but the only thing is they are very high priced

[loiyer]

@DavidRck u could say that about a company like mercedes, but u still get what u pay for.

[DavidRck]

sometimes im not one of them car drivers but i do like them

[SidVicious10101]

It needs a Floyd Rose.

[kratanuva725]

umm, actually this HAS been done before with numberous guitars, like the VG strat, gibson HD guitar, and any guitar equipped with a roland midi pickup.

[KingOfTheHeadbang]

*UVP: 3.595,00 €

[JustinTube81]

anyone know how much it is

[irishskatervader]

$3,600

[Schneider10101]

December...? I dunno

[mrktwn]

Interesting guitar, but by no means does it really change anything. Gee, Gibson must have spent an ass-load on this! Worlds most powerful guitar!? Please, enough with the Madison Ave. hyperbole.

[IanKusekSoloArtist]

gay... just my opinion..

[asklcnvivdf]

only gibson.

[gitaard]

omg i sayd ''callet'' xD

[gitaard]

hows callet that song?

[elantric]

The Dark Fire early adopters are considering taking legal action for being deceived.

check the Gibson Dark Fire Forum missing Owners Manual!

[RHCPfan]

This really ruins the true essence of the instrument. A guitar is meant to be tweaked by the musician him/herself...I really don't get the point of a VG Strat or a Robot lespaul. Just my opinion...

[EbonyEpiphoneSG]

This guitar just blew the robot out of the water, (if it does what it is said to do)

They will probably knock down the robots in price to make way for the dark fire.

[sirgerry]

Name one professional player that uses this or the robotic one? Nobody from humblest bluesmen to Slash to Clapton, these are marketing products aimed at the general public, real artists know better.

My two cents

[localphenom]

ive seen billy corgan with the tronical keys on a strat and an sg..the german company installed them for him so i hear...of course its aimed at the general public..you think gibson sells all their guitars to slash and black label society..no..stupid americans buy them..euro tech geeks, and japanese nintendo kids buy them...and stupid americans like gadgets and american idol

[adam50wainwright]

joe jonas uses one

lol

so yeah ur right that no good people use one

[jcall7]

itll be a let down

[brandxsavior]

I saw the demo of this last night in Sacramento; pretty cool guitar.

[fretboarder]

they say you can get every tone with this thing i think its just a toy..whats wrong with doing your own stuff on a les paul??

[iRokkr]

OMG I WANT SO MYCG

[stevehuff1969]

see my contest entry to win this puppy!

[darknessgodzamorak]

fuck....i fall in love with this guitar :o

[fletcherjefferies]

well at least Gibson is trying to innovate the guitar, instead of just making the same thing in different shapes and sizes (they're trying).

[localphenom]

they dont make the same guitar. the les paul of today has been cut back on quality and is in no sense like a good les paul..cepth it wont stay in tune..like the old ones..go to a shop and pick up a new paul and then one from early eighties or early 60's

[FloBuckethead]

IN-SANE !!

[gunsnrosesrocker]

i dont know what to think of it it looks awesome and the technology is great but its just not the original les paul is it and i cant imagine someone like slash or jimmy page picking up one of those and playing it like a standard les paul or gibson sg

[yahoochiewatchie]

Gibson really lost the look of the classics, the modern stuff looks and plays like shit! Robot my arse, give me a goldtop anyday!

[NEZTOK]

I wonder if Kurt Cobain would of played one of these, you know, if he hadn't shot himself in the head?

[UnrealSamurai]

why are starting with Kurt Cobain?? u shall take a look at this fuckin awesome guitar!

[NEZTOK]

Gibson's CEO should be fired. Quit making stupid ass kiddie shit.

[ChronospaceTrode]

another disaster by Gibson, the most over rated and most over priced guitar company in the world(mostly over rated)

[adirl17]

Stupid retard.

[localphenom]

wow..gibson keeps raising the list while they skimp on quality...the first robot works sometimes at best...how about just a good les paul that you can keep in tune without the chinese parts (or german tuners)

[custom24prs]

Too bad it's on the terrible LP body.

[Iwashereandyouknowit]

RIC FLAIR THEME SONG IN WWE =))

[R0llingStones]

i just got a boner form looking at that guitar........

[TMSierra]

SO DID I

[FootballFanatic80]

lol looks like its got a man utd crest on it

[everybodylovesgav]

at this point there only good at making vintage guitars :(

[Gasolari]

If Pete Townshend had known what kind of guitars will be making in these days, probably would not have broken his vintage Les Pauls, keeping them as a treasure...

[jdmilkbrand1]

didn't you fools get the video in your email? it looks like a les paul but its dark cherry red with a bit of a quilted wood grain look. it looks pretty sick. ya'll need to get on the newsletter i guess.

[THECaptZ]

god damnit!!! I wanna see the guitar!!!!

[keyblade09]

the guitar is a les paul, its similar to the robot guitar but the pick ups are very different, the finish is, well what the name of the guitar is, deep red is the finish, very cool but so expensive

[jigsaw9567]

this is sweet!!!

[notabodeka]

y is there a manchester united logo on it..

[Xxlenax92xX]

unnecessary

[everybodylovesgav]

gibson have lost it

all there new modern guitars are horrible :(

why is it when gibson make a new guitar there shit ( reverse flying v ) and when epiphone do its amazing ( prophecy ex/gx )

i cant think of any modern gibsons i would buy

[MintChip743]

The epi prophecys are some of the worst guitars ive played at least through a tube amp

[GibsonLesPaul1319]

true, but epiphone is a subsidiary of gibson

[rockwizclown]

gibson needs to stop making guitars so high tech. IT'S AN INSTRUMENT! next thing you know, they're gonna make a guitar that plays itself.

[rounce55]

lmao yaa

[rtCirkus]

If they make a guitar that plays itself, I nominate the name "Masturbator" for the guitar.

[darkcell92]

... *dropped jaw*

[poorperson]

wtf?

[UberFreon]

Is it just a studio? like the first robot?

[gugmi01]

theres nothing on the website about it...

[rounce55]

now there is

[deste23]

OMGOMGOMGOMG :D

[thatkidcalledthingy]

im gunna get 1

[Chava41694]

I CANT WAIT!!!!!

REVOLUTIONARY!!

[felipescalador]

2 thousand views in just 1 day...

[blenderx360]

Gibson is turning to modern....

[joedinho1748]

THIS WILL RUIN GIBSON

soulless sterile and SHITE

[Krankenstein25]

That thing must comsume nine volt batteries every five minutes...

[guitardevilboy]

I am totally gonna by it.

[crittoprrr]

Yeah, sometimes you wonder if Gibson "gets it" anymore.

[rapaladude]

i want it!

[0ooLatinopoweroo0]

If your gonna introduce something at least show the whole thing man.

[FrothySpoons]

its called at least move your lazy hand and go to the website

[0ooLatinopoweroo0]

I meant in the video... they just showed the head of the guitar.

I know there was a link >___>

[EL34]

kiss your pedal boards goodbye.

[GirlzRockerz]

what the f****

[fiddycent2]

that looks sooooooooooooooooo stupid. whats the point of buying a guitar if it can make you sound like anyone else but yourself

[rgregorius]

big deal... new gizmos on a guitar wont count for shit if it sounds crappy.. u can have the most technologically advanced guitar on earth but if u lack the dedication and the passion to play it u may as well boil stones for soup.

[blade4657]

i wish it was available in an SG form instead of a les paul form. but it looks awsome anyways and it's capabilitys sound even better. i bet it's gonna cost some big buck though. maybe 10 Grand

[paulefty]

Hype hype hype hype hype hype hype hype hype hype hype hype hype hype hype hype hype hype hype hype hype hype hype hype hype hype hype

[DisposableAccount174]

Will it make a lame guitar player into a good one?

[AGGUITAR777]

that´s the point dude ^^

[JuicyOverdrive]

I lol'd.

[TheGamingGuitarist]

What is the Dark Fire? This video makes it look like it's going to be epic.

[gpr1992]

it's kind like the gibson robot guitar which tunes itself but now they've added Chameleon Tone Technology which ummm well the name is slef explanatory so yeah XD

[BadasSTeven]

My god, thats gonna be kick ass

[victorandrada]

they keep to discontinue traditional gibson gitars and replace the with this crapy robotic shit, just to make alot of money out of it.. plain bull crap I guess

[AttackOfTheHugs]

WHAT THE HECK?!?!? hahaha. Cant wait

[notyourhomeboy]

name of the song?

[SmellsLikeNick]

looks good, but original guitars are and always will be the best choice from Gibson, or heck any company from Fender to Schecter

[evansuper454]

Not always. How about the Fender Showmaster?

[SmellsLikeNick]

well there are some exceptions, but i still like regular solid body guitars like the SG/Les Paul or Strat/Telecasters, they're withstood the test of time even though they're the most basic of guitars

[Alexizephyrmage9]

If this is another digital modeling guitar this is going to suck.

[zeppelin876]

wat is it

[Matt123ttam]

wtf mate

[dimebagdarrellxx]

Stop making robotic guitars and get back to making a REAL FUCKING INSTRUMENT!

[juan909s]

yea, one of my friends said hes going to get a robot, and i was like its cool, then i imagined using one on stage and i was like dying of laughter

[dimebagdarrellxx]

Seriously dude. If musicians are making music that requires them to have "robotic self tuning" guitars, hey thats great, but you're too fucking lazy. Half of the enjoyment of the end progduct of your great sound is all the work you put into it.

[juan909s]

umm, yeah thats what i was saying. dude. thats y i was laughing at him.

[Whitehawk3000]

True, and Pantera rocks ;)

[dimebagdarrellxx]

Fuck yeah dude, you know whats good.

[BadasSTeven]

I know like, I could tune my own guitar

[owenriley]

i know i check all around.

this video and the description are all anyone has.

[emachines007]

it may be a cool guitar but im not gonna be able to afford it lol

[flik6993]

Hype.

[maxwellmayer]

read the description. Hmmm...What about the VG stratocaster

[carswell98]

so... what is it exactly?

[ILikeWii]

*drool* lol.

[vaztion]

wow!...does gibson finaly make a 25/2" scale?

I have read that Line6 is in the project??

..damn! can't waith to see it!

or a whole new kind of bridge...???????

or a active stuff??

[brettstenberg]

THATS IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Chulkov89]

Yay. Another revolutionary guitar that no one is gonna take advantage of.

[juan909s]

:O omg, what is it gonna look like??? I hope its not gy like the robot guitar how its really a les paul studio. Cuz i want a f-ing good guitar that i can use onstage and be taken seriously. I cant wait to c it!!!

[fender4gibson7]

yeah it should be a Les Paul standard or an SG

[Xfighter22]

im so happy... ive been waiting for gibson to make a new guitar.

[ivo1212]
