Gibson ES-175 Archtop Electric Sunburst, 1964

On January 13, 2023 /

From its launch in 1949 until it was finally discontinued in 2017, the Gibson ES-175 Archtop Electric was the benchmark guitar for working jazz guitarists. The Gibson ES-175 archtop electric was in production for such a long time because it does exactly what many jazz and rock guitarists needed it to do.

Gibson Earl Scruggs Standard Mastertone Banjo Sunburst, 2000

On January 12, 2023 /

Built from 1994 until a devastating flood hit Nashville in 2010, the Gibson Earl Scruggs Standard banjo reproduced the classic banjo that used by Scruggs. At first, the model was just named ‘Earl Scruggs’. The word ‘Standard’ was added in 1992, because two newer Scruggs models were introduced for the 1992 year, the ’49 Classic and the Golden Deluxe.

Gibson ‘Lucy’ LPR-7 1957 Les Paul Red, 2007

On January 12, 2023 /

This is a very rare Gibson ‘Lucy’ LPR-7, reproducing George Harrison’s Les Paul and one of a very few built during 2007. Apparently five prototypes were built, then a run of perhaps 25 guitars, including this one, which were mostly aimed at the Japanese market. The project was then put on hold until 2013, when a larger run of 100 reissues were made.

Gibson Les Paul Supreme Translucent Black, 2012

On January 12, 2023 /

Introduced in 2003 and built at the Nashville Tennessee shop, the Gibson Les Paul Supreme is a high-end take on the classic design and features carved, highly figured Maple top and back. The construction of the Gibson Les Paul Supreme differs from the standard Les Paul though it uses the same basic materials as the Les Paul Custom. The carved top and back set are bookmatched, highly flamed Maple, on either side of a chambered Mahogany core.
