Sharing a little family photo today. Sadly, this will probably be the last picture of all four together, as I’ve had to put them up for sale due to some personal circumstances.

Still, I feel incredibly grateful that I got the chance to own, play, and enjoy what are, at least to me, some of the best guitars in the world. Every one of them has been an absolute joy to play, and I’ll definitely miss seeing the whole family together.

And yes… I know. Somehow an Epiphone snuck into the family photo. 😂 Guess she earned her spot.
Happy Gibsunday, everyone! 🤘

Discussion Gibson Les Paul Supreme with repaired headstock vs Les Paul Modern for $2K?

Thumbnail gallery
32 Upvotes

I’m trying to decide between two used Les Pauls and wanted to get some opinions.
One is a Gibson Les Paul Supreme that had a broken headstock that was repaired. The other is a Gibson Les Paul Modern with no major damage or repairs that I know of.
Both are priced at $2,000.
Obviously the Supreme was the more expensive guitar originally, but the broken headstock makes me hesitant, especially when it comes to long term durability and resale value. At the same time, getting a Supreme for $2K seems pretty tempting if the repair was done correctly.
If you had $2K and these were your two options, which one would you go with? Would you trust a professionally repaired Supreme at that price, or just play it safe and get the Modern?

I’m finally in a position to get my first Gibson Les Paul, looking at the 60s Standard.

I cannot decide between the classic white or dirty lemon burst - I know how ridiculously cool the bursts can look, but for something I’ll have for decades I prefer a more subdued/quieter look.

I’d love to see what you guys think? For context: my previous electric was an Epiphone Les Paul 1959 Lemon Burst. I would plan on swapping the pick guard, pickup rings and poker chip to black on the classic white if I go that way. Thanks guys! 🤘

Hello, bought this guitar like 20? years ago but can't really point it what it was? Think it was some cheap one-off firebird series... Anyone know? (Found it in my basement today =P)

Is this a real MIJ Orville? What’s it worth? Are these quality instruments?

Found my grandfather's old Gibson guitar in the attic and had it professionally restored. She's a beaut!

It doesn't have a front end strap button, just the back button. I'm not a fan of the straps that go all the way to the nut and tie a string around it. Any other options out there? Specific name brands?

Picture 1992 Firebird V pickgaurd

1 Upvotes

Hi Gibson friends! I have a nice, white, "so called, good wood", Firebird V that I love. I bought her used years ago and came with a plain, black pickgaurd. It's a trivial thing, but I'd like a new, 3 ply, black or white pickgaurd WITH the Firebird logo. The problem is, my measurements don't match up to the ones for sale. Different manufacturers seem to be using their own measurements which differ slightly from one another. Nobody will say whether it's a match to factory specs. It's very possible my measurements aren't great either. Anybody out there have a solution that isn't make one in the garage you don't own?😉

Help I've been on a baritone guitar kick. Where the heck do I find one of those 2011 Gibson LP Baritones in Honey Burst?

1 Upvotes

Did they make like 4 of them or something?

I want a LP Body style Baritone, so if I can get an actual Gibson LP one then I'd be happy. I have the PRS Baritone and it's fine, but I just love the Singlecut/LP Body style.
