Twang Gang Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 (edited) Check out the Gibson Demo Shop on the first page of the website. It's a Reverb listing of a bunch of guitars that were demo models. There is some pretty cool stuff there that is kind of hard to find normally, like Les Paul Less+, ES 275, Midtowns, some LP Junior and Specials. Everything has a few scratches and dings and some are priced about the same as a new guitar, but you might find something you like at a pretty good price. Here's one example A LP Special double cut for $999. Edited January 15, 2021 by Twang Gang 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merciful-evans Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 my search: Sorry, there's nothing here at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveFord Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 (edited) It's there, maybe it's a US only thing. It's kind of a Scratch N Dent Sale (and a way of clearing out old stock) without the discount or the normal warranty, though. I was interested in the Firebird V with the vibrola but the price and 2 year playability warranty only, nah. I have enough guitars.

Chicknpickr Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Yes, I got a keychain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twang Gang Posted April 21, 2021 Author Share Posted April 21, 2021 (edited) That is not just a key chain. I got one of those with some Gibson I bought and on the reverse side of where Gibson is embossed there is a snap. Open it up and you have a little pocket to put a pick or two in. So if you use the key chain for your car keys, you'll always have a pick handy for spur of the moment guitar playing. Don't laugh - I went into a bar with a buddy of mine once and there was a guy playing guitar and singing (he was just OK). My buddy being pretty outgoing and a little drunk went up and asked him if he would let me get up and play a few songs. He was agreeable and handed over his guitar. But I didn't have a pick and asked him if he did - but he only played fingerstyle. The bartender must have really wanted to hear something different from this guy so tossed me a match book and I played with that. Could've sure used my Gibson key chain/pick holder that day. True story. PS - REALLY nice looking 335!! Edited April 21, 2021 by Twang Gang 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sgt. Pepper Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 (edited) I know its one that holds picks. I used to have one I got that Levy’s made. I was being a wise a-as. Edited April 21, 2021 by Sgt. Pepper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
