Have you guys checked out those new Gibson guitars in shops like Guitar77, East Side Guitar, All Music(?) at Peninsular/Excelsior. They are either ordering or stocking up Gibson guitars now, and they are all reasonably priced (quite close to USA prices, plus shipping and GST) Well, after years of "Gibson monopoly" and overpricing by a certain retailer at Bras Basah, Gibson has finally become more affordable for all. Next...bring on Fender USA! 8)
