JuanCarlosVejar Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Folks , I was wondering if you would want gibson to bring back anything special from the past or do a specific model with certain unique woods for 2013. JC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jannusguy2 Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 I never thought I'd say this but I'm all set for Gibsons. Although, I'd look at a really clean HG-24.(Even better, have one built! ) Other than that I'm golden with my J200TV, rosewood Roy Smeck reissue and '51 J45.

Motherofpearl Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 I'm good as well for now. Might dip into the vintage guitars later on. Not really sure what gibson come up with now anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaelsegui Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 I'd like to see the current models changed to be more historically accurate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merseybeat1963 Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 I'd like to see the current models changed to be more historically accurate Yes..and made in a more historic manner. But they still are good : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rambler Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Same old rants. A period correct std L00 (black), light build, 24.75 scale, no messin' around. Shortly to be followed by a 12-fret LO0 (also in black). So you guys can buy one and get bored so I can pick it up used, heh. Oh yeh, a rosewood (or hog- dont say I'm picky) Nick Lucas (sorry, don't dig maple in that package). A maple J45 because Russ Barrenberg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flatbaroque Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 I'd love to see a 12 fret L-00 model especially marketed for Australian sale only..it can be called "The Thunder for Downunder". It will retail for $499 as an act of friendship to Gibson's Antipodean friends.. EA and BK777 will surely buy one as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jt Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 A maple J45 because Russ Barrenberg. If all goes according to plan, there will be a maple J-45 next year (and 3 other accurate "Banner" reissues). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zombywoof Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 I ain't gonna hold my breath but isn't 2013 the 55th anniversary of the first Gibson-mde Epiphones. I would like to see Gibson do a reissue of the Texan, Excellente and Frontier like those they did back in 1993. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rambler Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Alas, we're just doing banner reissues. No surprise that. Still its a shame to me that they dont have a solid L00 reissue in production (sorry the BK isnt it. Been there). Its as much a chunk of the Gibson legacy as Doves and such.

Its as much a chunk of the Gibson legacy as Doves and such. You could probably get them to build you an L-OO Legend or TV and paint it black. Those Ren L-OO Archetypes show up from time to time. I've seen two on the market in the last 18 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
