In the 80's ( I believe ) Gibson slashed there prices too compete with their competitors. Do you know what happened? When they cut their prices their sales dropped. Nobody wanted an $800 LesPaul, everybody wanted an $1500 lesPaul, even though they where identical people thought they must not have been the same quality cuase of the cheaper price tag. Gibson raised there prices and there sales went back up. Go figure.
