Gibson: ZW Moderne

We can still smell the freshness of the re-issue Gibson M-III but Gibson wants you to smell this one as well- Zakk Wylde's Moderne of Doom. A limited edition Moderne (existed but never released) with active electronics & a Floyd Rose locking vibrato unit. 

I was gonna reserve more respect for Gibson after the M-III move but with this one, I feel the manufacturer is giving itself a reason to look through their dusty design shelves to cash in on the forgotten. Gibson has every right to do so, of course, who are we to disagree. 

Maybe they should re-issue the RD...

... since the band Ghost is the flavour of the moment & they are RD toting people. But then again, Ghost vs Zakk Wylde... never mind.
