The compound dovetail neck joint is part of our DNA here at Gibson, dating back to Orville himself. This process requires the precise work of seasoned and highly skilled craftspeople. There are easier ways to fit a neck joint, but this method brings our acoustic guitars as close as possible to resonating as if they were built from a single piece of wood. Hide glue, used in conjunction with the compound dovetail neck joint, creates a tighter bond the more pressure that is applied. When coupled with nitrocellulose lacquer, Gibson acoustic guitars evolve and improve over time, maturing alongside you to become a cherished heirloom piece.
Watch Season 2, Episode 6 of “The Process” to see the attention to detail and labor that goes into the neck fitting and final sanding.

That series is so interesting to watch from the word go. As a guitar player myself, I have to write that there is so much to learn in the whole process. Thanks for sharing.

Amazing how two models from the same batch can differ. Luckily, I could choose from two '39 Reissue J-55s. One was a very good guitar, one was a real cannon. Never found any issues with Montana made Gibsons. Real works of art.

We went to Messa Boogie with no record deal just on the strength of our Demo and my guitar player and base player both walked out of the factory with an entire back line . I REMEMBER THEM BEING 10X LOUDER AND CLEARER. I being a vocalist got a brochure or something , Let's just say , it wasn't plug and play. If I played guitar in that band I would've been sending Gibson anything I could get my hands on just to let them know they are the reason it even exists. Of course Im talking about the tone that everyone identifies with. Rock n Roll guitar, metal thrash, everything from grunge to extreme metal . GIBSON guitars and PAF Dbl Humbucker and of course Marshall Amplification. Walah, = greate guitar sound.

And where is the part when an employers damages the binding, crackes the surface or damages the headstock? Cause after this you send most of those instruments to us retailers maintaining that this does not "affect the functionality" of the instrument and is no reason for a discount on the instrument or an exchange? So we have to keep it, reduce the price for a future buyer and make like 100$ profit on an instrument worth like 3000$? Should be mentioned as well 😉

Everyone Seems to be listening to something on headphones, or earpods. Gibson. This is supposed to be undivided attention craft. Even McDonalds employees don't have headphones/earplugs in. Glad my LP isd as 2020. Dumb asses.
