Gibson.com says $3,799 with chrome hardware (gold carries an upcharge). Gibson The Cornerstone Just Got Smoother I've been looking at them since they were $3,000, but cannot pull the trigger on something that expensive without playing it first. No trips planned to Nashville...
LucSulla Posted October 22, 2025 Posted October 22, 2025 Paper I am working on currently for a journal submission is on mythologized pasts informing the present and the relationship that has to consumerism and the problem of postmodernity. This is such a great example, and is straight out of Fredric Jameson. Which is to say, I hate it.
hamerhead Posted October 22, 2025 Posted October 22, 2025 $20K? They've had some of what Marvin Berry and the Starlighters were smoking. The case is cool, though.

Apparently Cesar Gueikian and their marketing department. His CEO tenure seems to be put out guitars so he can meet guitarists he liked as a kid. And Christopher Lloyd, maybe?
DarkHammer Posted October 23, 2025 Posted October 23, 2025 For $20K+ it better travel in time! Here's cool video from Norman's store who sold the actual guitar Marty played in the movie.
cmatthes Posted October 23, 2025 Posted October 23, 2025 This is more appealing to me and can be had for $800 to $1,300:

cmatthes Posted October 23, 2025 Posted October 23, 2025 No reason for four separate threads on this topic, so they're being consolidated here in the original post. Thanks!

geoff_hartwell Posted October 25, 2025 Posted October 25, 2025 The Chibson version is about 300 bucks, if you really want to scratch that itch cheap. Seen some on the Chibson fb group 🤷🏼♂️
