Interesting reading, but not really in a good way.

Strange that have discontinued one of their most iconic basses (the EB3/SG) as well. It's like Fender stopping the P-bass. Very strange days indeed.

Great article and I particularly like the last bit about encouraging people to play guitars and then more expensive guitars.
Is their guitar range as baffling as Fender's?
