Stuff About Gibson

Gibson has long stood as a symbol of American craftsmanship and musical heritage, shaping the sound of rock, blues, and jazz for over a century. Founded in Kalamazoo, Michigan in 1902, Gibson became legendary with instruments like the Les Paul, SG, and ES series, each known for their rich sustain, premium tonewoods, and iconic designs. The brand’s pioneering use of humbucker pickups and carved maple tops created the warm, powerful sound that defines countless classic recordings. Played by greats such as Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, and Angus Young, Gibson guitars continue to represent timeless quality, innovation, and a deep connection between player and instrument.

The Important stuff

Bass. Bass Guitars — Bass guitars provide the deep, rhythmic foundation that drives most modern music styles. With their longer necks and thicker strings, they produce low-end tones that lock in with the drums to create groove and power. From smooth jazz and funk to heavy rock and metal, the bass guitar shapes the feel and energy of a song. Available in both four and five-string designs, and in passive or active electronic setups, they offer a wide range of tonal possibilities. Whether on stage or in the studio, bass guitars are essential for adding depth, rhythm, and balance to any musical performance.. Cherry. Heritage. SG — The Gibson SG (Solid Guitar) is a rock icon with attitude. Introduced in the early 1960s, it took the Les Paul’s power and gave it a sharper, lighter, double-cut design for faster access to higher frets. Its twin humbuckers deliver raw, biting tone and endless sustain — perfect for everything from blues to heavy rock. Played by legends like Angus Young and Tony Iommi, the SG proves that simplicity, style, and sheer power never go out of fashion.. Standard.
