GIBSON 2013

Некоторые эксклюзивные можно подхватить в рознице у кастомшопдилера, например здесь: https://www.themusiczoo.com/category/159 ... p-Guitars/


Ну а некоторые так и останутся "в картинках", поскольку были выпущены в единичных экземплярах по индивидуальным заказам...
Вот несколько "картинок с выставки":

The 2013 Historic Collection

We are bringing the most discerning players and collectors in the World, the most refined collection of Historic Reissue guitars we have ever had the pleasure to craft. Through milestone achievements that reflect 20 years of a passionate commitment by Gibson Custom’s craftspeople, engineers and players and collectors from around the globe, the 2013 Historic Series of Les Paul guitars is the most “evolved” yet. More details coming soon.



In 2013, Gibson Custom re-introduces the use of single layer rosewood fingerboards into its Historic series of Les Paul guitars. Following the challenge of meeting global standards for the legal harvesting and processing of fine hardwoods from outside of the USA, Gibson Custom returns to its traditional use of single layer fingerboards featuring the finest available materials sourced, not only in accordance with US and international law, but also Gibson Guitar Corp. even stricter standards.
Updates to the 2013 Historic Reissue Les Paul series include the accurate reproduction of vintage Kluson “Deluxe” machine heads as were used on the original 1950s Les Pauls. With proper profiles, performance specifications and quality of materials, these recreations mark significant attention to detail. The original Kluson “Deluxe” machine heads are coveted for their smooth performance, vintage aesthetic and rugged reliability. Only one manufacturer in the world has earned the right to proudly label their tuners as “Kluson”.

2013 1959 LP Reissue VOS in Iced Tea

The vast majority of modern guitar joinery techniques employ PVA (polyvinyl acetate), an “advance” of science from the 20th century, that was created to minimize manufacturing time and limit skill requirements, effectively increasing manufacturing efficiencies. Prior to its advent, and for a period dating back thousands of years, animal or hot “hide” glue was the preferred material for joining wood in furniture, art and industry. Gibson Custom is ushering back the use of hot hide glue in its crafting of Historic Series instruments. This truly ancient process requires more time to be taken in the crafting of each guitar as well as more curing time to allow proper drying and adhesion. The result is a better join of hardwoods that prepares each guitar for a lifetime of use, care and recuperation from damage.
The 2013 Gibson Custom Historic series now feature authentic hot hide glue at the neck joint.





One of the many improvements to the original Les Paul design, was the addition of a “sock”; a flexible tubing that surrounded the truss rod cover to prevent rattling within the truss rod channel and allow for an easier installation of the neck spline. In addition, the specification of the truss rod’s washer, which secures the passage of the rod into the neck and provides a brace for the adjustment nut, was changed over the course of years. Finally, the anchor on the end of the truss rod, deep in the interior of the neck, was changed to a flat anchor. All these changes basically allowed the guitars to be built in a more efficient manner.
In 2013, Gibson Custom returns to the original specifications of the 1950s era Les Paul by removing the
truss rod tubing and re-engineering the truss rod, truss rod washer and anchor to its original form. While it’s not a detail you’ll see easily, our goal is to capture the original Les Paul down to incredible detail as much as is possible.

В феврале 2012 года мы посетили фабрики по производству гитар Gibson в Мемфисе (производство полуакустических гитар) и Нешвилле (производство электро-гитар). Нас поразил процесс производства - там практически все делается вручную и на старых станках. Дух рокн-ролла ощущается практически во всем: от персонала, до самого здания. Надеемся, что не смотря на сжатость видеоролика, Вы тоже сможете почувствовать дух этих легендарных гитар. Гитара "рожденная" руками такого огромного количества людей определенно не может быть бездушной!

Gibson Custom has reformulated its Goldtop finish to match the original’s deep, dark, gold luster. The Goldtop’s back is also reformulated to match the original from the 1950s.
In the case of the updated Gold, you will notice a deeper, richer finish with a slightly “greener” caste. On the guitar’s back, you will see a noticeable increase in the visibility of mahogany grain and a more severe effect on the final color that comes from the wood’s individual personality. As it was in the 1950s, each guitar back results in a very individual look, based on the use of vintage finish formulations and application techniques, and the characteristics of each individual piece of wood.




The fretboard of the original 1950s Les Paul has a very distinct cream binding and binding thickness that were displaced over the years, eventually drifting to a slightly thicker material and darker color. To recapture the original look and feel across the entirety of the neck, Gibson has worked to recreate a proprietary binding formulated to our original specifications. While the change seems subtle, there is a noticeable difference in both the aesthetic of the guitar and feel of the fingerboard.

For decades, Gibson Custom has been studying the performance specifications of the original Gibson Humbuckers by testing original examples and pouring through the limited amount of historical data from our company’s own manufacturing history of processes and materials that shifted over time. As a result, we recreated the most accurate reproduction of Gibson’s original pickup materials, average performance specifications from the 1950s, and the techniques used to create what eventually became the most sought after guitar tone across multiple genres and generations of music; The Custombucker.
Among the details to capture the original tone of our legendary Les Paul is the proper length alnico magnets as well as its exact materials composition. We’ve also studied the minutia to recapture nearly fanatical detail including the original wire material, thickness and covering.

Designed in cooperation with an esteemed group of Authorized Gibson Custom retailers, these 1960 Historic Reissue Les Pauls feature a V2 neck profile, exclusive Ebucker pickups, materials that are hand selected for weight, tone and beauty and in a range of colors not typically available in these models in 2013.

V2-Neck profile: captures the middle of Gibson's 1959-1960 transition to the eventual "slim-profile" neck that became the standard late in 1960. With a slightly flatter, slimmer profile than a 1959 Les Paul, but not quite as slim as the 1960, many consider this to be the ultimate combination of comfort, tone, and playability.

EBuckers: Working with a small group of players and experts within the ranks of some of our finest dealers, Gibson Custom Shop developed a pickup set that reproduces authentic Vintage tone reminiscent of some of our favorites. When the first Ebucker was unveiled, all agreed it was a pickup true to great Vintage Rock and Roll tone. “Sweet”, “Fat”, “Responsive” all help to describe a truly great pickup. Ebuckers are only available in select, limited run product for 2013.

Hand selected materials: With a focus on light weight, fat tone and eye catching beauty, each guitar in this exclusive range features materials that have been hand selected for this exclusive group of Gibson dealers, some of the Word's most noted experts on Gibson Custom and Historic guitars.

Внатуре, это уже просто на троллинг похоже, типа - а наспор какйто идиот из луизианы купит.. или из штата Мэн, например...

Это всё от того, что людишки (типо музыканты) всё никчёмней становятся, всё больше норовят к легенде прикоснуться, сами ни на что не способные. Другое дело спортсмены. Уважающий себя профессиональный хоккеист, даже средненький не выйдет даже на тренировку в именной майке какой-нибудь звезды.

Та дело даже не в том, просто это одна и та же гитара.
В VOS исполнении стоит 10-ку, чуть поялозили по полу - еще +4 штуки, а если поялозили прилично, со всеми сколами - то +7 штук зеленых к цене.
