Don't like 'em, don't care. I would never buy a damaged guitar.

I found this one I may pull the trigger on. Not Gibson, but it gets the point across.

Does anyone have a good source for Phone Cases with Gibson Les Paul Images. Specifically for a Samsung Galaxy A11 phone. I've tried Amazon & Wonderfull Case.

Yes, no more political adds and phone calls after today.

I guess I'd better go use my $50. Gift Card before it's useless.

RIP Eddie. One of the best and one of my favorites. Jam in heaven with Neil Peart.

Gibson Les Paul Classic, '57 & '57 plus pups, through the Automix channel of my Peavey Classic VT Series and MXR 6-Band Equalizer. That gets me my crunch / clean tone. I add Chorus and Flanger for my RUSH Tone. Compression Pedal for boosted/ distorted rythym and leads. Grunge Pedal for Heavy Metal like Black Sabbath and Judas Priest. Other effects: MXR Phase, BOSS Digital Delay, Cry Baby Wah, Morley Volume Pedal. Occasionally switch to the Combined Channel on my amp for a little heavier distortion (not heavier than the Compression or Grunge). And I sometimes use the Boost switch in my Morley to push a lead a little more. But, most of my tone is in my fingers and pick attack.

Hi guys! I am an aspiring motion designer. I am doing a short video about Gibson and I want to know your preferences.
To create a good video, I need to find out why the musicians chose this particular guitar and how it attracts them. If it does not make it difficult, please answer four questions:
- What are the main advantages of Gibson and why you chose this particular guitar?
- Which Gibson models and colors do you like?
- Who is your favorite musician who plays Gibson?
- What are your associations with Gibson?
Tell me a little about yourself it will help me a lot. Thank.
1. American Made, Set Neck, Neck Angle, Nibs on some models.
2. Les Paul. Reverse Fire-Burst (my guitar), Heritage Cherry Sunburst, Tobacco Burst, Desert Burst, Iced Tea Burst, Gold Top.
3. Alex Lifeson, Jimmy Page.
4. I own one.
I have been playing guitar for about 48 years. RUSH is my favorite band, of course I play a lot of RUSH music, and 70's Classic Rock. I taught my twin sons to play, one plays guitar, the other plays bass. They are 28 years old and have been playing for about 15 years. I also play acoustic, but mostly electric.

That's a beautiful LP. Congrats.😃

I'll split it up between my twin sons. One plays guitar, the other plays bass.

Looks like that would be very difficult to play. I'll stick to normal guitar necks.

Nektar, Remember the Future.

Back in the late '80's or early '90's, I sold a Gibson Les Paul Deluxe Gold Top. But since I now have my Gibson Les Paul Classic Antique, I don't really miss it at all.

I switched from Ernie Ball Super Slinky's to Ernie Ball Cobalt's, 10's a long long time ago. Haven't gone back since.

Great story. Thanks for sharing, and congrats on the autographed stuff.

Searcy is ok. He posted on facebook.

I use a lot of pedals, mostly chorus, flanger, phase, compression and delay. Occasionally wah-wah, volume and acoustic. My MXR EQ is always on (not button, so just in my line). Just recently got a Looper and a Harmonizer that I rarely use. I wouldn't go without them.

Just Curious (Gibson Parts)
in The Gibson Lounge
Posted · Edited by LPguitarman
So, while changing my strings, yesterday, my Toggle Switch Cover split in two and came off. I immediately went to my local Guitar Center and bought a new Gibson Authentic replacement. They only had White, the one that broke is Amber. No big deal, for now, it was only $4,99. and I also went on Sweetwater and reserved an Amber one. $6.99 at Sweetwater. My main question is, Why does it show up on this web page (in the All Hardware) as $21.99. Are they different? Does Guitar Center and Sweetwater not have real Gibson Authentic Parts, even though they say they are?
