The release of the original Gibson Robot Guitar in August 2007 caused a sensation the likes of which the guitar world has never seen, with stocks of these instruments selling out in most music stores within 24 hours. This self-tuning version of the hallowed Les Paul capable of returning itself in one second at the push of a button, and shifting to any conceivable alternative tuning with equal ease and speed broke a long-standing natural law of the instrument and was embraced the world over by pros and devoted enthusiasts alike. Now, with the introduction of the new Dark Fire, Gibson takes the format exponentially further in a guitar with both analog and digital capabilities that would have been virtually inconceivable just a few years ago. In a first production run of numbered and strictly limited Dark Fire guitars, Gibson now combines considerably upgraded Robot Tuners, tuning brain, and battery functions with unprecedented analog and digital sonic abilities. A natural marriage, the melding of these functions gives the new Dark Fire stunning new levels of tonal and functional freedom, enabling you to release your full creative abilities put simply: you play, the Dark Fire does all the grunt work.The Dark Fire Analog or digital, the Gibson Dark Fire gives you an infinite number of tonal possibilities to let you change the tone of the Dark Fire to match your environment a concept otherwise known as Chameleon Tone Technology. Never before has one guitar been able to produce every imaginable guitar sound.
To top it all off, each new Dark Fire also comes with Gibson's new Robot Interface Pack (RIP for short), a small box about the size of a pack of playing cards that functions as a studio-quality preamp, firewire computer interface, digital hex-pickup breakout box and so much more. The Dark Fire can be played straight into a standard amplifier with a standard 1/4" mono cord and still provide a broad range of analog electromagnetic and piezo pickup tones and switching combinations, or routed through the RIP to a computer-based recording system, PA or multi-amp system for unprecedented control over your soundscapes. Or just play it through the RIP alone, using the dedicated stereo headphone output and level control, to set up your sounds in privacy before the gig or session begins, or simple to practice.
Perhaps the most important consideration of all for any serious guitarist, however, is the fact that the new Dark Fire is built on the most solid, toneful, and playable bones in the industry. Based on Gibson's 2008 Les Paul Standard model, it has a solid mahogany body and carved maple top, solid mahogany neck with super-fast asymmetrical neck profile, and two of Gibsons finest pickups: the new P-90h in the neck position and a Burstbucker III in the bridge position. The Dark FireAlso, without even tapping the full capabilities of the hex-pickup-based digital system, the new Dark Fire II offers acoustic tones via its improved, sleeker looking Tune-o-matic bridge with six individual piezo-pickup saddles. Added together, these industry-leading features are crafted into a whole far greater than the sum of their parts, and rendered to optimum playability with Gibson's Perfect Setup from the world renowned computer-controlled PLEK system, acknowledged as the most precise guitar set-up technology in the industry. To further set this exclusive run apart, Gibson is producing the Dark Fire in a new Dark Fire finish, with a headstock inlaid with Gibson's traditional flower pot inlay, and a striking white form fit hardshell case.
