That was fun and some really nice ideas - I'd really like to see a re-worked Ripper

[Eldon Tyrell]

Gibson should hire this guy. He clearly has much better ideas than what Gibson has come up with in the last few years or even decades!

BTW, Todd "Dammit" Kerns already has a Tbird shaped signature bass - The Anti-Star Signature Bass

Todd ‘Dammit’ Kerns, is best known as bass player/backing vocalist of SLASH feat Myles Kennedy and The Conspirators. He is also the front man for legendary Canadian rock band Age Of Electric, and a multi-instrumentalist, singer, songwriter and producer. Basically Todd does it all and rarely, if ever, slows down. He is currently hard at work with Age of Electric, Todd Dammit And The Anti-Stars, TKO and a project called TOQUE which he formed with Cory Churko (Shania Twain, Kelly Clarkson, and Reba McEntire) and fellow Conspirator Brent Fitz.

 

The Signature Todd ‘DAMMIT’ Kerns Anti-Star is the culmination of R&D carried out on rock n roll stages all over the world, with bass guitars of all shapes and descriptions. The resulting design was a direct collaboration between Todd ‘DAMMIT’ Kerns and the Prestige Guitars design team and is an absolute embodiment of the tone and playing style Todd is known for. Straight ahead, full-force, rock n roll. The Anti-Star’s unique offset body shape features a 7 piece mahogany/walnut neck-through design coupled with ebony fingerboard and a Hipshot full contact bridge, to drive that huge, powerful, thunderous tone and maximize every ounce of string vibration. Tone controls are stripped down to the bare essentials; Volume control and On/Off kill switch. Pickups are Seymour Duncan Custom Shop Signature ‘Todd Kerns’ passive bass pickups, wound hotter than normal for a little extra punch. A reverse headstock with TUSQ XL Nut and a set of Grover Titan Machine Heads completes this rock n roll machine.

That guy has quality photoshop/video skills. 

[Cosmo Valdemar]

That was a wicked thing to do.

Wicked.

Don’t get me wrong - I was aware of the date, but It was only when I came to the 3 point bridge on the ‘Davie504 Victory’ I knew it was b******s!!!

Luckily we have Epiphone.

For a minute there I thought that word has got to Gibson that I was participating in the Gear Abstenance thread this year.

 

Great April Fool, loved it.

[NancyJohnson]

I think the thing that threw me initially was that it wasn't posted on the 1st.

 

Oh, well.  It's a great pity it wasn't genuine.
