Anyone here play a Gibson? I'm kind of curious what it is you like about it and if it's comparable to Martin. I am a die hard Martin fan but I've been thinking about getting a Gibson lately.
We're doing a Re-finance on the house and will have a few bucks left over at the end of the month. I've found the best thing to do with extra money at the end of the month is to buy a new instrument or guitar accessories, because I have GAS (Guitar Acquisition Syndrome), LOL. 🤣Ā
Looking forward to your answers!
Guess no one plays a Gibson. 😒Ā
40 years ago I touched a Hummingbird for 3 chords!Ā
Hi Susan,
Hmm, Iām surprised as if you ever watch a country tribute show of any kind, Gibsons are really well-represented. Iāve always wanted a Kalamazoo-era Gibson as Iām from that area. I think their current Singer Songwriter model looks very intriguing. And of course the Hummingbird is a country icon.Ā
Someday...too little time, so many guitars...
Yes, I thought for sure there'd be some Gibson players here! I know next to nothing about Gibsons, so your Kalamazoo comment made me curious. Looked it up and found this interesting article about the old Gibson factory. Might be a fun place to go see sometime. https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/the-old-gibson-guitar-factory-kalamazoo-michigan
@shysue I have a cheap Gibson that I played for a long time. It is an epiphany, made in Korea. The action is pretty high. I prefer to play my Taylor
A cheap Gibson? Thatās an oxymoron...thereās no such thing as a cheap Gibson is there? Ā Lol
@jerseychicadee haha yes there is it is only worth a couple hundred dollars
My niece has a cheap Fender. I guess every big brand has its economy models. 😊Ā
When I started guitar shopping I didnāt even look at Fenders. What did I buy? A Fender. Itās okay. Pretty. Holds tune great. Sturdy. Sounds good. Itās cute. Has a heart shaped sound hole. Iām a sucker for anything heart shaped or pink. Lol. I have been lusting over several guitars but since COVID I havenāt worked, so no new guitars...for now. Lol
OMG! Ā Reverb! Hereās that ācheap Gibsonā you asked for.Ā
@jerseychicadee Holy cow! $149,999 AND $500 shipping. You think they could at least throw in the shipping for that price!
@shysueyep I have a fender Stratocaster squire. I got it and an amp for like $200 new
