Anyone here notice that Gibson declared bankruptcy the other day. They have been a festival sponsor. :flight
Yeah, saw that … makes me wonder about finally moving forward with getting a new genuine ES 339 while they’re available.
^ Perhaps he can be convinced to pick up a banjo again and make a visit to Telluride?
An ES 339 would be a good investment. It would sound good on the TBF stage. :cheers
I did see that and I think they are going to rebuild the company. Read that somewhere.
yeah, figured they try to re-emerge somehow
If for some reason they don’t, I’m sure one will always be able to get a Gibson second hand
I hope they can keep it going, I’d love to have a Hummingbird someday. My father-in law has his fathers 1950’s Gibson, and a recently produced Hummingbird, both are super cool guitars. My current guitar is a Taylor factory custom but those big Gibsons have a real special sound.
I just inherited my grandfather’s Advanced Jumbo. It’s a late 90s model and is a monster. Puts my Martin HD28 to shame.
