I was at the Gibson garage just a few weeks ago. Shout out to their sales staff. They let me play through a range of custom shop guitars and were incredibly friendly. I ended up picking out a 68 LPC and having it shipped home for me. Incredible experience. Specific shout out to Patrick Greene on the sales staff, cool dude. Even pointed us to a bar that night to see Guthrie trapp play and had an amazing night!

I used to work in a bar in that building called "The Bar Car" because of the train tracks that run behind Cummins Station. It was a debaucherous place to say the least. It was where you went if you wanted to have fun but didn't want to be found by the usual crowd.

I got a Natural Mahogany Flying-V there a year ago and it was the best customer service I've had in a long time. They let me into the room where you build custom guitars with that blue suede Mesa Dual Rec half stack and shut the doors (It's still in the same spot!). He brought whatever guitar I wanted to try and then gave me a free string change and freshend the set-up once I chose. I know Gibson is on the pricey side, but if you're a guitar player and you've got a couple grand to spend it's a fantastic experience.

Many thanks, Lee & Pete. Even though I live in America (St Augustine, Florida), I have always watched your videos (for the last 10 years) to learn the facts and your seasoned opinions on guitars and the things they use to make tone. As soon as I finished watching your NAMM video on the Epiphone 59 Les Paul Standard Outfit, I ordered one (and got it 10 months later) and have not regretted it. It is great that Gibson and Epiphone have finally figured out a logical order of ownership progression between their two product lines. Who knows--they may even develop an attractive customer-for-life progression. I'll be watching for my next guitar through Andertons. Thanks again and Happy New Year to everyone there. Cheers.

I was also there back in June, and was quite prepared to be underwhelmed but I came away thoroughly impressed after being in there for about 3-4 hours. Played so many different guitars, fell in love with several of them, wish I could have bought one back (more than one), staff were super helpful, and the conveyor was mind boggling. Hit Gruhns and Carters the following day, followed by Guthrie Trapp at the Underdog. Add in the mind boggling live music scene on Lower Broadway and side streets and you have guitar heaven. Can't wait to go back!!

The store video was fun, the vault was cool; but I appreciated the opportunity to here from Aljon the most. Personally, I understand why the current crop of Inspired by Gibson Custom Shop is in the price range it is. Is it too expensive? That's up to each person to decide for themselves. For me personally, It is a bit too expensive but I wish them the best because having more options has never hurt the customer.... except in their ability to decide what is right for them.

Great video , Lee and Pete really nailed this video what i believe must have been an amazing experience , touching and playing those nostalgic real relic guitars with price tags that one only can dream could afford. I have the same opinion as Lee when comes to new stock relic guitars , they can only be in some way closely identical replicated from the originals that's all

Great video! I’d love to go to the Gibson Garage, but I’m in a wheelchair thesr days and I’d have a hard time dealing with the stairs. They’ve sure got some cool guitars, though! I used to live in Nashville back in thr late ‘70s, and there was nothing like the Garage then. I probably walked past the location hundreds of times-I was gigging at night and doing part-time sales at a small music store on Lower Broadway a few days a week. (Anybody remember Wes Holland Music?) The guitars in the Vault at the Garage were amazing! The Trini Lopez prototype was really cool-I’ve never seen that flat inline headstock on any other Gibson. In case you’re wondering, Trini Lopez was a Latino singer and guitarist who had great success in the ‘60s, doing Latin-rock versions of folk songs. Good singer and good rhythm guitarist. I understand the second switch on his signature guitar was so he could turn the guitar off to avoid feedback while he was clapping his hands over his head, which he did a lot. Anyway-cool vid, even if there was too much emphasis on Les Pauls! Gibson makes other models too, and SGs and 335s sort of got short shrift. And I can’t wait to see what’s coming from Epiphone-they’ve been doing some cool stuff lately.

I believe that “Gemini” Les Paul is the older sister to Greeny. They have sequential serial numbers and Kirk Hammett has mentioned they have a similar sound to them (in single-pickup positions). Cesar has said the top is likely cut from the same piece of maple.

@rybones1311 6 ай бұрын

If you watch the Rig Rundown of John Notto from Dirty Honey, he had the Gemini guitar on loan from Cesar for that show and they briefly discuss it being close to greeny ser number wise.

@scwebb 6 ай бұрын

My understanding is that there are 3 numbers between them but those were all amps, so Greeny was literally the next guitar made after Gemini.

I did get to Guildford and purchased a Chapman ML3 that I tried out at Anderton's. Thank you Pete and Lee for your interesting content.

If Gibson is going to vacate the $1000-1700 price range as Lee hinted, they need to do more than just put Gibson pickups in an Epiphone in order to ask those prices. I have always seen a noticeable difference in quality from Chinese-made to Indonesian/Korean-made instruments and there is far better value out there for less.

Beautiful guitars in the vault. I have a 55 small guard Southern Jumbo that has such rich woody mids. A gorgeous sounding guitar that just brings a different vibe than the earlier Martins. I also have a ‘34 small burst L00 that was just born for playing the kind of dirty blues licks that no other model can duplicate. Yeah I’m a bit of a Gibson acoustic fanboy. They are a bit more hit and miss than their more sophisticated Martin brethren. They are a bit more dive bar than microbrew but I love em.

As Epi starts making much better 'copies' of Les Pauls etc what techniques is Gibson using to stop the forgers from modifying the former into the latter?
