There are better guitars than Gibson, at much lower prices. They are sticking to their legendary reputation...holding on to a dead fish.

 

[Cloudsky]

Maybe some of our local artists will be endorsed by Gibson?

 

[AEnimic]

[ficiante]

Actually I don't agree. At least for the Les Paul, its hard to find anything better than the original. However for the ones that are better, they would probably cost more (eg. other brand's custom shops).

If you're talking generally like strats or what not being better than a Gibson, then of course there will be, subject to the individual's taste.

 

[Phanto]

definately riding on the prestige and reputation of Gibson. but wow, shiok, will be able to go down and ogle at all the really expensive models.

nah. i think main thing is for them to gain more popularity in the marker here. prices stays the same, but more pple will buy.

 

[Phanto]

yeh. its gona be pretty big, the shop might host events etc, get people really hyped up to get gibsons.

 

[Slash04]

I don't think they'll make good business here. Just my opinion.
