I can live with most of the changes, some are for the better. However, the E Tune should be offered as an option not on every guitar. I think the E-tune will go by way of the Doe-Doe. I spoke with a few sales people at a couple of stores that sell Gibson and they are livid. And, the guitars are not selling at all. I can see a place for the E Tune, but the average player just isn't going to want it. This is Gibson's 2nd foray into auto tune-their 1st attempt failed miserably. So will this.
