what would you like to see from Gibson in 2025 ?

[Amp360]

A continuation of the Gibson brand being only on USA-made instruments.

Fewer model variations. I find it confusing to keep up.

More Garage stores.

I think the new team is doing a fantastic job. I've gotten two US production models - a Special and a Theodore, and couldn't be happier with them.

We are going to get a trickle of remade 'archive' releases. Mat said this outright.

 

[Jethro Rocker]

A single cut ES-335 that is balanced on the shoulder with a strap like a Les Paul. Ie, not headstock heavy.

I don’t want to have to hold up the headstock with my left hand while playing any guitar.

Just saying, a Well-Hung custom strap will do this. No slippage. Fantastic straps, a whole range custom, padded. Check em out on Reverb. I have like 7 or 8.

I would like Gibson to build a guitar like an EMS 1235...but with just a straight up 6-string side, not a double neck. But use the same type of construction--completely hollow with a thick, carved spruce top and so on.

 

[El Camino]

Taller frets, Jumbo X-jumbo

No more Nashville bushings.

Low output pickups <7,5k

Drop prices.

Lower prices (wishful thinking)
