the other side Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 A low budget spaced out Utube video. I hope that's not part 1 of a series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluesKing777 Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 No idea, really - but they could probably do a quick trade in the Hummingbird blankets from the video to the Hummingbird players! (Or is that what they are flogging - the blankets?) BluesKing777. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuanCarlosVejar Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 It was a clothing/accessory capsule Gibson and Billy put out some time ago . All the pieces were based around the Hummingbird artwork. JC 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cunningham26 Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 (edited) They're all in the Gibson shop but brace yourself for sticker shock and pray Sgt. Pepper doesn't find this thread. It seems really weird that this designer is all about american iconography and style, particularly that in the american south, but all the actual pieces are made overseas. I wouldnt pay $600 for a western shirt but certainly wouldnt pay that for a western shirt made in china alongside a levis shirt that retails at a tenth the cost.

Yes, it IS very advanced - a sign of high originality. 😮 Sure hope Hartford Snider gets his percentage, , , and he accepts that modification. EEEh, , I don't - to trade the butterfly for another stylized mini-hummer - no way ! Btw, is a 1972 Bird mentioned while a split-parallelogram fret board is shown - and does that represent the level of insight'n'touch. .

Don't know where there was a good view of the fretboard on the Billy Reid- Gibson video, but this YT video gives a good look at her guitar, and a good listen to a well-played 40 Series Martin: Edited November 18, 2023 by 62burst Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounded like transducer quack a bit, but the playing made it worth the while. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanvillRob Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 (edited) I like the Hummingbird blanket...but not $300 worth! Edited November 18, 2023 by DanvillRob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanvillRob Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 I checked out the Gibson Store... I really don't need anything...but there's some good stuff there. The "Playing Stool" was interesting. I have a couple of the short ones.... I got one at GC because I had a gift certificate and it was only $39, (so it was free). Later on, I bought another one for $39. The ones in the Gibson Store are $125.....because of the Logo.....that you sit your butt on. Mine just have to "Star" on the seat....and I had to assemble them myself....but MUCH cheaper than the Gibson ones! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ouh thanx - saw the stool page and others, , , couldn't find this with the rug. I too like that one - though it's a slightly weird a mix between the Hummingbird garden and Epi Frontier desert. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
