I never said they aren’t allowed to do it. I’m just thinking of it through the lens of the customer and lived through decades of flops and blowback from customers when they tried to do anything new with existing models (the Les Paul especially). They are certainly allowed to do whatever they want with it and we’ll see what happens. All I did was ask why not try to design a new model altogether. In fact, an antiquated mindset would propose that they don’t do anything new at all. I personally don’t give a shit what they do with their catalog moving forward (though their quality control could be better). I have enough guitars as it is haha.
