Hey, is it really true that Gibson aren't making the Gibson Marauder (like Deryck had in the HHOP era) anymore?
this this i mean. and someone knows where can i still get it?
I mean, i found like one or two on ebay but i don't want to actually but it from ebay before i actually played on it and saw if it really sounds good as its supposed to or at least its comfortable for me. the fact is it looks really cool and i heard its great too, so i would like to get one, but from where?

well, ebay is about it, man. they havent made marauders in awhile, so you'd be hard-pressed to find one in a music shop, maybe a pawn shop, but i doubt it....

damn, thats annoying.
I mean, if i had some extra cash i would order it from ebay, but i mean, first of all, buying a guitar off ebay... who knows if its really good and second of all, we're talking on a guitar i never actually held in my hands on heard its sound as it should be, so god knows what a waste it could be, cuz maybe its not that comfortable for me, or i would not like the sound

So it could suck big time if i'll just order it like that from ebay.

ask to see if they change their minds to shipping it worldwide if if they dont just wait for others to pop up they always do

Okay, i hope to get the money soon, and then i'll ask the guy to ship it worldwide, since he's only shipping to the US...

Honestly, I don't know why Gibson discontinued it. It's a perfectly good guitar. I would get one if they were still on sale.
But actually, I do think Epiphone still make them?

Really? :O
I looked around and couldn't find anything, not a Gibson, nor an Epiphone.

Uhm, maybe I'm wrong then.
I just thought I'd seen them around.
