Gibson 1st April Release

Gibson add a whole host of new colours and designs to their USA and Montana line ups

Gibson proudly presents the Les Paul Studio Double Trouble. Following the overwhelming response to the limited run Les Paul Standard Double Trouble models, Gibson broaden the line-up to bring the Double Trouble experience to even more players. The Les Paul Studio Double Trouble delivers everything players expect from a Les Paul Studio—performance, versatility, and unmistakable tone—while elevating its visual identity with exposed Burstbucker Pro pickups featuring Double Classic White bobbins for an unmistakable stage ready look. Available in Dirty Lemon Burst (pictured) and Cherry Sunburst.

Need an enhanced version of the Les Paul Studio with AA maple cap, ebony fingerboard, contoured heel, and 57 Classic & 57 Classic+ pickups? Then the Les Paul Studio Session is the guitar for you. Now available in a quietly understated Cherry and the the striking Iguana Burst.

The Supreme range has quickly earned praise from players around the globe. Its carefully curated feature set made it one of the past year’s most talked-about new models. Responding directly to player feedback, Gibson is now unveiling three new two-pickup Supremes finished in a striking opaque Ebony. The three new Supreme models include the Les Paul (pictured), SG, and ES-335.

The new Gibson Victory Figured Top was created in response to player requests for the return of this 80s-era cult favourite. Crafted for limitless self-expression, it carries the DNA of the original versions with enhanced features such as refined body contours, improved weight and balance, and an Explorer™ headstock. Featuring a AA figured maple cap two new colours of Cherry Burst​ & Cobalt Burst​ are available. 

Prefer a more traditional take on the Gibson formula? The brand new SG™ Standard ’61 Faded revives the essential design elements that cemented the SG as a true icon, inspiring players and shaping music across decades and genres. The SG Standard ’61 Faded stays true to the look and feel of those celebrated early-1960s originals and is available in Vintage Cherry Satin finish.

The new Gibson Acoustic Specials are designed to be the guitar you rely on from the smallest to the biggest stages and a creative companion built to last for generations. Handcrafted in the USA and featuring stage-ready L.R. Baggs™ electronics and premium soft cases, the J-45™ Special, Hummingbird™ Special (pictured), and L-00 Special feature satin nitrocellulose finishes for a smooth, approachable playing experience and enhanced resonance. Classic neck profiles and mahogany backs and sides offer familiar Gibson tone and feel, while Sunburst and Wine Red finish options complete the perfect picture. 

All three models are now available in Natural, Ebony, and Honey Burst in both right and left handed configurations.
