Gibson Go For The Gold Contest: I Can Win A Slash Signature Goldtop

September 17, 2008
Gibson Go For The Gold Contest

Gibson rhetorically asks "Wouldn't it be cool if you could get the new Slash Signature Les Paul Goldtop from Gibson USA for free?" Well, you can't, because I already have the Go For The Gold contest virtually won.

You theoretically ask, "J. Irving-Giles, can you tell us about this contest you're going to so skillfully win?" Yes. Gibson and Slash bring you the Go For The Gold contest, a chance to win a Slash Signature Les Paul Gold Top from Gibson USA.

Participants must make an original video demonstrating how far you're willing to go to win this contest. There are only three rules. Your video must contain a guitar, something gold and no more than two minutes of run time.

Slash offers his advice, and from his tone, I can tell he deeply regretted his decision to become a guitar legend instead of following his true dream to become a high school counselor.

"Get a f*%@&#g gold grill for your teeth, man. I don't wear a lot of gold, but it does look good on guitars. You can get some gold sneakers and some other stuff, and if you really want to take it to the extreme get yourself some gold bling, a gold grill, some gold tennis shoes, a gold jacket and just really do it up."

So enter the contest if you want, but you're only going to fall short to me. Think I'm kidding? Check out my video.

How come Axl Rose looks like a completely different person while Slash hasn't changed a single atom in over twenty years?

As for Gibson the website pretty much says it all in the two main sub-headings under the company logo: product , lifestyle.

FYI - This is an Epiphone contest which is much better. Anyone spending the big bucks on a new Gibson is a plastic actress poseur with their own hair crimping iron and Lee press-on nails who does aerobics with a Thigh-Master to Richard Simmons' Sweating to the Oldies videos. (Which is actually kind of Rad)

Gimmicks Baby, that's the key to long-term success in the music business. Find your own distinctive hat and it will seem like you're an individual even though you're playing the same guitar as 50% of the other players out there.

Video contest for the Gold Les Paul

Haven't seen your video yet, but we are shooting this weekend...touche' my friend!

As for the guy commenting on the plastic actress thing...WoW!

If you read the rules dude, they are giving away the Gibson Les Paul...not the Epiphoney.

I don't know about your take on indivduals...Adam from tool plays a Les Paul...sounds like no one else, and has been making cool music for almost 20 years. I could go on...but why?

Can't wait to see dude's video to see what I'm up against. I tell you this...it better be fucking brilliant! Not only am I Italian, I have Jewish friends! You know what happens when you get jews and wops together? Films just fly out of their asses!

You got me!

By: Tony Castelluci (not verified)

Wow, that was an awesome idea! I must admit, I never thought of anything that funny.

You rock like the Grand Canyon!

Only thing is, now you have to live with the fact that your video has driven me nuts. I mean I'm absolutely over the edge now. (ex-Marine you know).

You know, I was at a Satanic Ritual the other night hosted by Rick Astley...oops not supposed to talk about that.

But seriously think about it! How to hacks like that get a gig and a "hit" song in the 80s is not for satanic cults. What did this guy have to do to get his little homo-erotic song on the radio? Drink Blood?

Wow, And I had forgotten about that guy.

Hey man...where do you live or hang out. I think it would be cool so we could become friends enough for me to punch you in the arm for that one.

And of course I'm blessed/cursed with a DVD memory. I only had to hear/see about 3 seconds of that shit before I scrambled to hit pause.

"neh neh neh neeeh neeeh neeeeeh, neh neh neh neh neeeh neeeh neh neh neh neh nehhh nehhh neeehhh,
with out you!'

I like you...but YOU SUCK!

No...I won!

By: Tony Castelluci (not verified)

I won the guitar! I was going to sell it & buy a better camera...you know...to make better films. But it's so much better than my Ibanez RG 470...I don't even play the RG anymore.
