At the recent Audio Engineering Society Convention in NYC, Gibson’s name was prominent and above Tascam at the electronics company’s booth.

Maybe Gibson is getting a little bit more tech-savvy?

Got tired tired of paying for endless ‘so-called’ re-issue series, not to menton the custom-shop jobbies, and don’t even get me started on the road-worn wonders? I call them replicas. My local eBay and Kijiji is full of these instrument at low-ball prices. PRS is getting all the wonga I used to spend on Gibbys…and Ibanez 6/7/8 stringers are my go-to axes for modern cutting edge sounds..Replaced my Fender Precision with a (Leo Fender) Music-Man Ray in 78, and the Jazz bass with another Music-Man Sabre bass of the same year…best decision I ever made. ..Regards.
