Larsson Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Hi guys, So in the summer i'm jumping over the pond for the Trans Am nationals in Ohio... i am flying in to Chicago and figured i would head down to Nashville. i was wondering where in Nashville the Gibson factory is and whether its possible to get a tour or something? any feedback for this would be greatly appreciated as i need to start booking hotels :) Cheers, Larsson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murph Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 As many times as I go to Nashville, I've never been there. Chanman and Stiffhand live there, they'll check in I'm sure. They said the Opry Mills Showcase was closed after the flood. That's a shame, but these are tough economic times. Be sure to check out Gruhns Guitars on Broadway around 3rd/4th. While no longer a Gibson dealer, they specialize in vintage and collectable guitars and always have a nice inventory (which you can also view online). Bring your VISA..... Regardless of your taste in music, the Country Music Hall Of Fame is just a few blocks from Gruhns and is 3 stories tall FULL of vintage gear. Well worth the time and even has cars that belonged to Elvis and stuff. There are lots of bars/pubs downtown with live music, street musicians busking ect., and Nashville is just a really cool town full of really nice people. Here's hoping you have a good trip and enjoy your visit. Murph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
