Gibson Keb’ Mo’ Signature Bluesmaster

 Gibson Keb' Mo' Signature Bluesmaster

Today, we are proud to feature the new Gibson Keb’ Mo’ Signature Bluesmaster. Built in a limited run of 300, this guitar is built in the tradition of the classic small body Gibsons of the 1920s and ’30s. As a Grammy Award winner, Keb’ Mo’s musical range demands a guitar that is as expressive and versatile as he is. After spending some time with the guitar, I must say how pleasantly surprised I am with the responsiveness of the Keb’ Mo’ Bluesmaster. Gibson has made all the right design choices to bring as much sound out of a small bodied guitar as possible.

Gibson Les Paul Studio

The Gibson Les Paul Studio is a prime example of the fact that sometimes, less is more. Gibson has stripped away all the decorative flare usually associated with the Les Paul, and what we are left with is a rock-solid guitar, that sounds and plays like a million bucks, at a fraction of the cost of a Les Paul Standard.Under its stark finish, the Les Paul Studio is built from the exact same woods and materials as its more expensive counterparts. A weight relieved mahogany body with a solid maple cap give the guitar all the punch and sustain we’ve come to expect from a Les Paul, while the 490R and 498T humbucking pickups deliver thick lows, singing highs, and sweet harmonic overtones.
