September 2, 2000The Gibson Custom, Art & Historic
Division follows up last year's
introduction of the Dale Earnhardt
Custom Les Paul with two, new racing
machines -- the Dale Earnhardt The
Intimidator Les Paul and the Dale
Earnhardt, Jr. Les Paul. The Custom
Shop also announces the addition of
the '67 Mahogany Flying V Reissue to
its Historic Collection.
Dale Earnhardt The Intimidator
has many of the same features as the
1999 Dale Earnhardt Custom Les Paul
including a carbon fiber faceplate,
chrome lug nut volume and tone
controls, hood-pin tiedowns with
wires to secure the guitar to the
Simpson safety restraint-guitar strap.
Both models feature the artwork of
renowned motor sports artist Sam
Bass.
The Intimidator model has a silver
finish with red trim highlights and new
artwork from Sam Bass' Quick Sketch
series.
The new artwork features the year
2000 Chevy Monte Carlo with updated
Goodwrench Service Plus design that
Dale is now racing.
The guitar is authorized by the
Earnhardt family who worked directly
with Sam Bass on the artwork and
design approval. This is the second of
three total runs of instruments, each
limited to 333 guitars in the run.
The
Dale
Earnhardt, Jr. Les Paul has the
same cool features as the two Dale
Earnhardt guitars, but is adorned in
Dale, Jr.'s colors and number. The
back of the guitar features a sketch by
Sam Bass of the #8 Buweiser Monte
Carlo alongside a decal of Dale Jr.'s
signature.
The guitar has chrome lug nut volume
and tone controls, carbon fiber
faceplate, chrome hood-pin tiedowns
and wires to attach the guitar to its
included Simpson safety restrai
nt
strap, and Dale Jr.s signature inlaid in
the ebony fingerboard. For more information, visit their web site at www.gibson.com. |
