PROCESS FOR YOU AS AN END CUSTOMER TO MAKE A CLAIM UNDER WARRANTY

GIBSON AMPLIFIERS & CABINETS

Australis Music Group (AMG) warrants to the original purchaser that this Gibson amplifier or cabinet, if used under normal operating conditions, as determined at AMG’’s sole discretion, will be free of defects in parts and workmanship for a period of five (5) years.

Speakers used within your Gibson product are warranted for three (3) years, while all included light bulbs, vacuum tubes, cables, and accessories (excluding batteries) are warranted for six (6) months.

This Limited Warranty applies only to the original retail purchaser when purchased from an Authorized Gibson Dealer and is subject to all other limitations set forth herein.

Products determined to be defective by AMG will be repaired or, at AMG’s sole discretion, replaced by another similar unit without charge to the owner. All transportation and insurance costs associated with warranty service and repairs are the responsibility of the purchaser.

Tube Amp Owner Maintenance:

Your Gibson amplifier may utilize vacuum tubes, which, like a light bulb, wear out with use and require some periodic maintenance. Most tube amplifier problems are caused by tube failure and can usually be cured simply by replacing the faulty tube(s). The physical act of replacing a faulty tube, much like replacing a faulty light bulb in your home or a broken string on your guitar, is a simple process for which the owner is responsible. Replacement of tubes outside their own warranty period is considered routine maintenance and is also the owner’s responsibility. Damage to the amplifier caused by out-of- warranty tubes, while rare, may not be covered under this warranty. This warranty becomes void if any tubes other than genuine MESA tubes are used. Abuse, misuse, or failure to properly maintain your Gibson amplifier or cabinet may, at AMG’s discretion, invalidate this warranty.

Most problems can be self-resolved in minutes by referring to the troubleshooting guide in your owner’s manual or online

at https://www.gibson.com/support/ where you’ll find answers to a wide range of FAQs, other tips, and service resources.

AMG will make every effort to complete the repair as quickly as possible.  AMG cannot accept responsibility for products shipped to us that become damaged in shipping due to poor packaging.
